I'm having some difficulties in getting my Roland TR808 synced via the A190 Midi-CD/Sync interface.

What I want to do is use the A190 to transmit a clock signal (using the Clock midi clock signal) that will allow me to run the TR808 in sync with Cubase VST.

Up until now I just connected the Clock jack from je A190 to the Sync on the 808 (on the input position). And nothing happens. I tried messing about with the Synnc out menus in Cubase, but nothing's happening. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks!

If you're using the DIN sync on the 808, it won't really work with MIDI 
sync. As it turns out, DIN sync cables - although they appear to be 
MIDI cables - actually use the other 2 pins of the cable. 
Unfortunately, I found this out the hard way. When I was syncing my 
Technosaurus sequencer with a JoMox drum machine. They use DIN sync, 
and when I tried to use a standard MIDI cord - no go. I had to find one 
that had all 5 pins connected to get any action at all. Hope this 
helps!
