Re: [elektron] Tap Tempo Implementation is a Major Pain

2003-08-26 by Chris Thomas

I don't really think the microsync will help you in this situation. It needs a distinguishable rhythm as input for it's beat detection. Since I'm guessing the pedal has no midi (otherwise problem solved..) you would have to split the pedal's output off and into the microsync, which would then go wtf are you sending me.. and _maybe_ you would get it to send midi clock/sync to the MD, but I doubt it. 
I, however, use the microsync with my dj mixer, and I can mix the MD with records just fine.. microsync rocks :)
