Re: [elektron] MnM won't accept midi clock!!!!!

2004-11-26 by endlessnessisticman

I'm surprised you say you are more happy with the MD.  I love using it
so much after spending years with an MPC2000.  It's short comings (no
live external midi record) aren't that big of a deal(have a different
sequencer to record live notes).  It is so easy to come up with
something and it's so fun to use.  Yet it is also quite open that it
requires you to be creative to make something good on it.  You also
learn alot more as your combine parameters and find little tweaks. 
I'm planning on getting rid of my ms2000r and Access Indigo 2 but the
MD will be with me for life.

You have to bear in mind the MnM is quite new and Elektron is quite
small.  They'll fix it but it will take time.  You should also send
any questions or comments to them by way of support@....  They
will send you a personal reply in a day or so.

I don't know if it says in the MnM manual but in the MD manual it
suggests that you use the MD clock as the master.  Using both I
wouldn't know what to say, I don't have the MnM.  I guess I would use
the MD as master since it has less bugs I suppose.
