VEP 7 Server - How to sync MIDI clock?
Hey, I'm having fun using VEP Server 7.0.789. However VEP ignores tempo from my DAW . I am using the (7.0.789) plugin to connect to the 64 bit 7.0.789 VEP server via Gigabit Ethernet (both sides are Windows 10). Everything else works great. I can play Epic Orchestra and my other VST's, but tempo is not coming over. Do any of you have any ideas on what might be blocking the tempo/clock? I have tried Studio One and Cantabile to run the plug-in, with the same result.When I first start VEP Server 64 bit it says 120 in the tempo box in the bottom right. As soon as I connect via VST plug-in it goes to zero. I've been messing with it all afternoon and can't figure it out. Any ideas?

Thanks bbelius, I:
- Uninstalled (both sides)
- Deleted the config files in appdata
- Reinstalled Server/VST as Administrator. Everything looks 'fresh' on the settings front.
- Created brand new VSL Server Project and DAW Project files to start anew.
I still have 0 tempo when I connect from Studio One 4 or Cantabile 3.
Given an available trial or free version of any other (Windows) DAW/VST Host, I'm willing to install and replicate your steps where one can receive tempo in VEP.

I just loaded Syntronik which shows its remote clock. Syntronik was one of the first arp apps where I could hear something wasn't matched up. I would change tempo and hear no change on the VEP side of things.
If I have an app that displays bpm/tempo, they use/show 120 when VEP shows 0. I just attached a screenshot where you can see the local VST sync'd to tempo and VEP is not passing it on to the same VST in the server.
(Screenshot attached, VST Host-108, Syntronik local 108 vs Syntronik VEP 120/0)

Bbelius - I just tried a couple things on the DAW/Host machine. I like the idea of trying scenarios on both machines to see if one is different somehow. But I get the same results on the other machine too:
- VEP 7 Standalone - insert plug-in, adjust tempo manually by double clicking on the bottom right of VEP, observe plug-in picking up tempo. Works.
- VEP 7 Server 64 (local) - Added VST EZ Drummer, Launched Cantabile, connected to VEP 7 Server as Localhost.
- Change Tempo to 108 in Cantable, started transport, changed Tempo to 140.
- Tempo goes to 0 in VEP 7 Server after connection and does not change.
- EZDrummer (or Syntronik) remains stuck at 120 and does not respond to tempo changes.
- Just for fun I reversed the whole thing between machines also. I went to the original VEP Server machine and launched Cantabile over there and connected to this second machine now running the server. Same result.
