Re: [DTXpress] MIDI question

2000-12-30 by Lee Kanne

Hello...

Well yes, as long as your midi interface is turned on it is excepting midi
data from the dtx module, and it will light up
green showing it is trying to send it out......


I am not able to play any of the of dtx "practice songs'" when my interface
is turned on and it plays havoc with my metronome, which is which i usually
use the click in the computer sequencer.....

disable the dtx metronome and make sure you didnt accidentally trigger a
"song"., and then see what happens...
