Fast answer

Set Clock Source to Auto (MIDI), connect the master’s MIDI OUT to the minilogue xd MIDI IN, and make sure the master sends timing clock.

Do this first

  1. Connect the master MIDI OUT to minilogue xd MIDI IN.
  2. Open Global Edit clock settings.
  3. Set Clock Source to Auto (MIDI).
  4. Start the master and test tempo changes.

Diagnose it

Is Clock Source Auto (MIDI)?

Yes: Check the master clock-transmit setting and cable direction.

No: Set Auto (MIDI) and retest.

Expected result

The minilogue xd follows received timing clock when it is available.

Why this works

Korg documents Auto (MIDI) as following received timing clock and using its internal clock otherwise.

Still stuck?

Recheck the physical MIDI direction and the exact source device setting. If this behavior differs on your hardware, keep the model/revision and setup details for a correction report.
