Re: [Evolver] OF MIDI Clock and insistent sequencers

Similar issues can exist in different types of gear. Midi is a pretty broad overlap. I don't think highlighting the non-existence of a useful filter to turn off midi start/continue constitutes complaining. Also your "solutions" have already been mentioned about a week ago.

OK. well, I think (working on memory here as I don't have the evo with me at
work) there is a parameter on the same row as the patch and bank select
parameters. This is called MIDI SYNC and is global.
if you don't want your evolver runnig along with MIDI clock, then turn it
off... If you want it running sometimes and not others, then turn it on and
off as required.

Sorry, but I really don't get this. From what I can tell here, you are
complaining about the evolver sequencer running when you press play on your
master... but you want the MIDI clock input so you can sync the LFO's to
your master? is this correct?

If thats the case, then I guess there is no way to do what you want, short
of a MIDI filter either in your master sequencer, or in the MIDI chain
(Peavey PC1600 will filter certain MIDI messages if you set it to, I'm sure
there's plenty of other things that can do this too)
