> I was triggering individual notes - not MD patterns

so wait, then why would you even need to sync the MD up with a 
seqeuncer if you were just using midi notes?
sorry, i'm just new to this and curious how and why people do things 
(all in effort to find out what works best for me!)  ;0

so far i'm liking triggering patterns from Cubase.  but this 
definitely requires sync from Cubase for tempo matching.  but so far, 
it works fine for me, although i haven't tried mixing down to audio.  
maybe that's where i'll find sync problems?  during normal playback, 
however, i don't.  

otherwise, i'm tempted to keep my setup this way.  but if anyone does 
find the software to convert MD signal to something Cubase can sync 
to, please do post it.

like i said before, now i get to have the power of the MD's grid 
programming and parameter locks, but i can also automate parameters 
like mad in Cubase.  the only one that kind of sucks there is doing 
mutes.  if the MD could record mutes as CC info!  that would be nice.
