Casio CZ/ VZ/ FZ - Pro Series

Hey Sealed, I love your deep synthesis page. It inspired me to check 
out a HT-3000, which apart from the lack of sysx is pretty cool. I 
noticed on your site that you say that the auto shut down can be 
prevented via a MIDI connection. I jave mine all MIDI'd up but it's 
still shutting down after a while. I'm guessing that you have to send 
it MIDI clock or something.  What's the secret? 

Rock on with the Deep Synthesis page!!!

Hi, Jon!

Thank you for visiting my site. I'm very glad to hear you're enjoying 
your HT.
When I tested HT's auto shut-down problem, I connected my Roland XP-50 
with it. As you pointed out, it seems that XP's internal sequencer sent 
MIDI clock endlessly that kept my HT-3000 awake.
I think it's worth trying connecting HT with a sequencer. I hope your 
success!

Best,
Sealed

Awesome..that did the trick. I routed the active sensing messages 
from my K5000 through to the HT-3000. The HT has been on all night so 
that truly works. Plus I finally have found a use for active sensing 
MIDI messages.

Congratulations!
And thanks for letting me know what active sensing is for....
