ok, so I've just tried again.

Setting MMC doesn't change anything. The play and stop works fine. Here's what I have:

Logic:
In Project settings->Sync->General:
- Sync Mode: MTC
In Project settings->Sync->Midi:
- MMC: Listen to MMC input is enabled

Audio Midi Setup:
- Device properties: Transmits Midi Time Code is enabled
- Device properties: Midi Machine Control is enabled


Now I have noticed something that could give some indication of what's happening. When I press record in Logic and then play on the Cirklon, I get the usual recording dialog in Logic, but the bar indicator seems to be caught in a loop and never gets past the countdown. Obviously there is no recording during the countdown so that would explain why I don't get any data in the tracks. Also in Midi monitor I also have noticed a loop, here is a excerpt of the log:

23:54:13.955 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 0
23:54:13.965 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 17
23:54:13.975 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 42
23:54:13.985 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 48
23:54:13.995 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 64
23:54:14.005 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 80
23:54:14.015 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 96
23:54:14.025 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 114
23:54:14.035 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 2
23:54:14.045 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 17
23:54:14.055 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 42
23:54:14.065 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 48
23:54:14.076 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 64
23:54:14.085 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 80
23:54:14.095 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 96
23:54:14.105 From Plug 1 MTC Quarter Frame 114

Remember I'm not trying to record midi notes here, only audio. I'm not sure what the last column (so after "Frame") entitled "Data" is
but I'm guessing it's a timecode and every 8 messages, it's returning to the start.

Anyone have any ideas ?
