I have no idea why your midi/cv thing isn't working right with the echoplex's midi output, but I think maybe you can do this without midi at all. When sync=out, the echoplex sends out a pulse from the BeatSync jack in the back. The pulse is sent at the startpoint of the loop. Perhaps you could use this pulse to trigger the vortex tap tempo jack? I have no idea if it will work, but I'd be plenty interested in finding out! BTW, with the midi thing, did you try different midi channels? Does the cv thing care what the velocity is? Can it use cc instead? kim At 12:43 AM -0700 4/28/00, John Tidwell wrote: >I came across some Vortex info in the Analogue Heaven >archives that indicates that some of these folks were >able to operate the tap tempo function of the Vortex >from their sequencers and/or synths. > >I've tried running the EDP's midi out to a midi/cv >converter & then connecting the converter's S-TRIG >out to the Vortex tap tempo jack.
