Has anyone else successfully gotten the looper to sync to their DAW? Can you please tell me exactly how you did it if so? I cant seem to get it to work properly. It will only play with REAPER but comes in after a bar for some reason. Would like to record and playback synced to my DAW. Thanks

Hello,
Can you please let me know what you have tried and what is not working? Here is a forum with some details about how to output MIDI clock using Reaper: https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=254514
On the H90, you need to set your clock source to USB or DIN depending on how you are connecting it to your computer. Go to the H90’s tempo menu and select “Source > MIDI Clock”. You should find that when you play the transport in Reaper and change the tempo, the H90’s clock will follow. Note that when Reaper’s transport is not playing, it will not output MIDI clock, and therefore the H90 will have no clock to follow.
If you turn Tempo Mode on for the Looper, it will follow MIDI clock, more information about how it responds to MIDI start/stop can be found here: https://cdn.eventideaudio.com/manuals/h90/1.9.4/content/algorithms/looper.html
After setting all of this up, you should find that once the transport in Reaper is playing, you can press record on the H90 looper and it will wait for a downbeat to initialize the looper’s recording.
Once a loop is recorded, you should find that stopping and starting the transport in Reaper will also cause the H90 looper to stop/start.
Let me know if that helps.

Hi there.
Thanks for the reply. This looper is a hot mess to say the least. REAPER has clock enabled and sync. I turned on BPM and now it shows beats so thats good. I record a loop and it will playback sometimes and not others. Sometimes it will playback the loop then stop and kick back in. If I set it to 8 beats. It will randomly switch to 3 beats or change my play start and play length to random numbers. They also become locked and I cant change them back to what they were set to originally. Super frustrating and not usable thus far 🙁

What software is your H90 running? I would recommend trying the 1.9.4 public beta, as we added many looper improvements to this release.
Note that you must use the H90 Control public beta software v1.8.6 to work with this.
If you are still having issues, it would be helpful if you can make a video that demonstrates what is happening, and you can email that to support@eventideaudio.com.

Hello again 🙂 I am on 1.9.4
Still testing but having more luck in Ableton. REAPER is a mess. Will report back
