Re: EDP Sync with MPC 1000

[John Tidwell <wedgehed@yahoo.com>]

You don't have to have the Alesis & EDP set to the
same midi channel for the EDP to receive midi clock.
If they are set to the same channel, the EDP might
be seeing midi note messages from the drum machine
as well. Since the EDP is capable of using midi notes
to control its functions, it might behave in a way
that you do not intend it to.
