Swing with external USB clock

Hi all,
The Tracker Swing FX doesn’t do anything when synced to a DAW via USB. Swing works perfectly when using the internal clock.

posts in the old github suggest this feature was previously working?

bug bug confirmed

I wasn't able to confirm if this is the case on b1, but the swing FX and synced …delay time do not work when slaved via USB on 1.4.0b2. It ignores the assigned swing value, but If you are changing swing values just as the transport hits the swing FX, tracker will become completely out of sync with your device (also, tracker's internal tracks seem to go all wonky too, nothing like the normal swing FX behavior). synced delay time is also ignored, but i've had a few occasions where it does work.

This is very frustrating indeed. I’d love to sync my tracker from my octatrack, but the swing stops if it’s receiving midi clock. Thus, I have to send clock from my tracker, which means when I transition to a new song by looping on the octatrack, I have to open midi settings on the octatrack, disable sync and transport, switch projects on the tracker, then match it up and turn the settings on again.
