Re: Re: [elektron] Turbo midi : so what ?

2006-10-03 by Scott Kellogg

No, no, no, no, no.

Turbo MIDI enhances the ancient and slow MIDI specification so samples
may be transferred much more quickly from a computer to the UW.  As a
side effect, it also increases the resolution of the MIDI timing.  The
UW can sync to a computer just as well as any other MIDI device
without Turbo MIDI.
