Sending and Receiving RTS with Source-Connect Talent
As of Source-Connect 4, RTS no longer uses the Rewire plugin since, among other things, the plugin does not support Apple Silicon chips. Instead, Source-Connect Talent 4.0 relies on MTC (MIDI timecode) to both send and receive remote transport sync (RTS). The most common scenario for talent will be to receive timecode, which will be described in more detail below.
For the purpose of this beta, we will describe how to configure your DAW for MTC with Pro Tools. We will add additional information to the Source-Connect 4 beta testing program page.
Configuring your setup to receive RTS is now a two-step process:
- Creating a MIDI device to share RTS (this will apply to both sending and receiving RTS) on macOS or on Windows.
- Configuring Source-Connect and your DAW:
- Establish a connection with your connection partner.
