MCL megacommand 4.51 - midi connection issue with MCL controlling Rytm

Hello Elektroneurs,

I’m wondering if anyone else has encountered the same issue, and I hope I can explain it clearly.

I’ve been dealing with a recurring MIDI disconnection problem from the second MIDI port on the MCL, which connects to the Analog Rytm. The AR is set to receive both clock and transport data from the Machinedrum through the MCL. More often than not, the MCL struggles to re-establish the connection with the AR, despite everything being properly synced and working initially.
I’m using Driver 2: ELEKT on the second MIDI CTRL port (Port 2) in MCL.

The issue typically occurs within the first 10 to 15 minutes, as the MCL repeatedly attempts to sync with the AR, failing several times before it stabilizes. However, when I switch to another project on the AR, the problem resurfaces. The MCL tries to reconnect but fails a couple of times (usually between 2 to 4 attempts) before the connection is successful again.

I’m aware that switching projects on the AR while using the MCL can cause some issues, but being able to resolve the connection issue within a single project would already be a huge help.
Thank you !
