Re: Midi sync of the A-155 from the A-190

2003-03-12 by code_pig

Actually, I have no problem with the A190-A155 combination.  I mean, 
there is a slight lag (which I assume is down to the MIDI digital to 
analog CV conversion), but the sequencer parks at step one, and 
starts at step two.

The lag doesn't bother me much, and seeing as how I multitrack 
things, I can offset the lag.

What is supplying the MIDI clock, and how is the clock being routed?  
I'm certain you know this, but try never to supply timing critical 
MIDI data via a THRU port.
