Hey all - I’m trying to trigger Playbeat to play with my DAW on my Windows machine (Presonus Studio 5). I have the MIDI clock sending to my iPad fine over Network MIDI (other apps like Fugue Machine start with the DAW). The only thing I see in the PDF manual is that there should be a “Sync” button in the Playbeat app next to the tempo that syncs it with a DAW, but that button is missing for me. Am I missing something? Thanks -Tim ---

Hi timclark, Thanks for reaching out. Have you loaded Playbeat into a Studio One track as a plugin? Or you are using the iOS version of Playbeat from your iPad? ---

The SYNC button is hiding on you.
