RE: [elektron] MD songs locked to software sequencer?

2002-08-16 by Eric Peterson

This is working supremely. Running SX sync'd to the MDs MTC works like a
charm. [Whereas the other way round was less than successful --apparently
SX's timing is all over the map]

Now, if I can only figure out outhow to get the MD recognize the transport
Stop sig from SX... Is this SysEx? I can't find the start/stops signals in
the MIDI implementation. Am I blind?

Thanks! Still geeking... -E.

: O.K. that is obvious, but to take advantage of the "parameter
: lock" features
: of the MD (one of its strongest points in my opinion), I will
: program all my
: patterns in extended mode on the MD of course.  I will then
: trigger these
: patterns from the external sequencer.  This is done by
: setting up the midi
: mapping in the global settings of the MD.  You can assign a
: midi note (which
: corresponds to a midi note number) to a particular pattern
: number on the MD.
: You can even map individual sounds of your kit to these midi
: note numbers
: and trigger them externally.  The MD comes from the factory
: with patterns
: A01 to A16 already mapped to certain midi notes.  You can of
: course change
: these and also map the additional pattern banks B thru H.
