  -------exactly, they only play their own internal sequence patterns.

  get them to not start their own sequencers...<<<
  --------not use ext sync? I could try that, but I would guess that 
  it might make their timing get weird, worth a try tho...
  > One last thing to note, whenever I save the pattern, it messes 
  with the preset that is called up on the EA1 and ER1 (not the 
  DX200). I know that the pattern will hold that information, but I 
  don't know how much room I need to leave at the beginning of any 
  track so I can input this information ? is one tick enough? Won't 
  this mess up the timing of the sequence?

  it WOULD affect the timing of your sequence, but only for brief 
  moment the very first time that pattern plays.  It won't happen 
  everytime the pattern loops, as long as you put the sysex on the 
  first tick, or tick 0.  I think that 1 tick will be fine too (in 
  terms of length).<<<> 
  --------more food for thought. thanks a bunch rEalm, maybe I WILL be 
  able to make this work!
