With the DelayDude Sync Cable you can connect all DigiTech devices that provide a Jam Sync with other midi devices. It works with the DigiTech Solo XT and the DigiTech JamMan Express XT. You will only have to plug in the DelayDude Sync Cable into the Jam Sync output of the last pedal and then connect the first midi device. It\u00b4s important to put the SDRUM first in chain, because the JamMan does not send Midi signal. The signalchain is: SDRUM, JamMan, other Midi devices. It does not work without a SDRUM.<\/p>\n<p>If you are using several JamMan, you can connect them quite simply with a standard 1\/8\u201d sync cable. All you have to do is, to connect the last JamMan pedal with the first midi device by using the DelayDude TRS to midi cable. And by adding a midi splitter or using the midi output of the midi device you can also connect further midi devices.<\/p>\n<p>If you want to integrate the SDRUM into this setup too, you will have to place the intelligent drum machine as a master clock at the first place of the effect chain. The SDRUM is unable to receive midi signals \u2013 it only sends them.<\/p>\n<h3>Is the SDRUM able to start\/stop my DAW?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, you can also connect a DAW (like f.e. Ableton Live or Cubase) which can be started\/stopped via the SDRUM. On top you can also sync the tempo of the DAW (as far as it is adjusted accordingly).<\/p>\n<p>Click <a href=\"https:\/\/delaydude.de\/de\/sdrum-in-sync-with-ditto-x4\/\">here\u00a0<\/a>for the Video about how to synchronize the SDRUM with the DITTO X4.<\/p>\n<p>Go and get the DelayDude Midi Sync cable <a href=\"https:\/\/delaydude.de\/en\/produkt\/digitech-sdrum-midi-kabel\/\">here<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sorry, this entry is only available in Deutsch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[685,268,683,973],"tags":[3248,838,3259,100,942,943,1813,1274,1042,248,428,525,968,2263,295,524,429,2172,115,427,1303,1887,944,655,941],"class_list":["post-2190","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-digitech","category-pedals","category-tc-electronic","category-tips-tricks","tag-angebot","tag-cable","tag-connect","tag-digitech","tag-digitech-jamman","tag-digitech-sdrum","tag-effect","tag-effect-pedal","tag-gitarre","tag-guitar","tag-in-sync","tag-jamsync","tag-kabel","tag-kaufen","tag-midi","tag-midi-clock","tag-midi-sync","tag-music","tag-pedalboard","tag-sdrum","tag-shop","tag-synchron","tag-synchronisieren","tag-synchronize","tag-tc-electronic-ditto-x4"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p9GLlF-zk","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":1585,"url":"https:\/\/delaydude.de\/en\/sdrum-in-sync-with-tc-electronic-dittox4\/","url_meta":{"origin":2190,"position":0},"title":"Tips &#038; Tricks: Digitech SDRUM in sync with the TC Electronic DittoX4 Part 1","author":"Delay Dude","date":"Monday January 22nd, 2018","format":false,"excerpt":"Because of many inquiries I would like to explain how to synchronize the DigiTech SDRUM with a TC Electronic Ditto X4.
