Sonar Platinum projects no longer syncing Motif

I am having a problem with Sonar Platinum sending time code to change the tempo in my Motif.  Not sure if it's related to the last update 10-17.  It always worked before.  Now, whenever I change the tempo in my sonar project my motif does not change.  All my sync preferences are set correctly.  I loaded a project up in Sonar X3 and my motif changes tempo no problem.  Anyone else have an issue syncing the last version of Sonar with an external hardware or Motif?

Well, the Motif is getting it's clock from itself then, otherwise it wouldn't be running at all.
My guess is it's slave setting has been reset.

Don't think the problem is with the Motif setup.  Sonar X3 projects that I output to the Motif will sync with my tempo setting in Sonar.  But Sonar Platinum, the last update of it, won't do it.  Ableton live projects have no problem syncing the Motif to Live's tempo setting.  I have only had this problem since the last Platinum update.  Unfortunately, it seems that will be the last and final update of SPLAT. -M.F.

There is a difference between Midi clock and MTC. Are Motif and X3 set to the same standard?
 
I remember syncing up a Roland MC-50 with Sonar 5 back in the day. I only had success one way, not the other.You could try reverse master and slave, just to see what happens.

Here's a link I found.
It discusses midi time codes in general, but the DAW used to illustrate it is ... Sonar!

Hello!

 

 
   






Thanks Antoni Banderos!  It helped to see the screenshot.  Problem solved!  I think some of my settings must have been reset or changed when I did the last update which would explain sync suddenly not working.   Thanks everyone for your help!
