Re: Help getting sequencer clock to run off external input peak

2008-12-04 by devetron

Bah. So I went to my evolver to try out the settings under "midi 
clock" and the external in settings weren't there. I emailed DSI and 
they told me that the settings were moved to "trigger sel" with the 
3.0 OS: "That moved in version 3 to the 'Trigger Sel' parameter, 
mostly to bring it in line with the other Evolver models, but also 
because it's not really a clock parameter." 
I originally got that info from the version 2.0 manual. 

I'll try to shut up now unless I KNOW what I'm talking about. 
Me: "Hey everybody! I'm typing on the internet!!!"
