How do I get time signatures like 12/8 on the machinedrum?

2003-02-20 by frustated2000 <conapt@philipkdick.com>

Hi, I'm new to this list. I've recently bought a machinedrum but 
wondered how I could achieve dotted notes and triplets as well as 
straight notes so I can work with 6/8, 12/8 time signatures. I've 
asked Elecktron support but they have yet to get back to me. In the 
scale setup you can only seem to select 16th or 32nd notes. In the 
manual I can't find any mention of how to set dotted notes or 
triplets and I can't believe the sequencer would be that limited.
