Re: [Evolver] Re: Envelope triggering

2003-01-13 by Woody Wall

MIDI out is enabled on the 505 and the Evolver syncs and follows the tempo 
changes. It works fine when I use a 505 sequencer part to trigger Evolver as 
a sound module. I just want to use Evolver's internal sequencer, but the 
envelopes don't trigger when MIDI Clock is set to In or I-O.
