Re: [xl7] Sync Problem

2004-10-19 by Aaron Eppolito

I think I confused more people than I helped with that "tip".  People
couldn't figure out how to set tempo to external, so I indicated that
"0" was external.  Once you set it to 0, it shows EXT.  If it's still
not syncing at that point, make sure the MIDI in LED is flashing,
indicating that you're getting sync.
