Title: Re: EDP/G2 sync

... I've got a clocked system using one of those Korg Electribes to tap-in tempo and feed MIDI clock to everything. I need to get an additional merge box so prog changes and controller information from my MFC10 doesn't disrupt the clock -  can see tempo drop on the Repeater display when I'm pedal dancing. 

I don't use the EDP for clock because: 

 - I often use very long loops, and then short ones, without editing 8th note value
 - I'm stopping and starting the EDP all the time these days which might well disrupt clock. 
 - I want clock for other devices way before I want to get the Echoplexes going
 - I'm sharing clock with my drummer

I've found it a good idea to save a pattern on the Korg that isn't triggering sounds, or at least very simple ones because if the Electribe has to generate complex stuff, the clock drifts)

If I want to take either EDP out of sync to clock I can hit "overdub" before I record and, hey, I'm in free mode. Well thought out software. 

Best wishes
