Thanks for responding, John! I got your previous post, and I intend to try it out this weekend. I'm new to looping and even newer to anything MIDI, so I'll spend some time with the Alesis manual to try and figure out the MIDI channel thing. All I did with the drum machine was connect a cord from the MIDI out on the Alesis to the MIDI in on the EDP. This is sadly the extent of my MIDI experience. I do greatly appreciate your giving me a direction to look in. I was really at my wits end.
