Hints at multi -plexing Re-visited..
Yo Gang,
I didnt get quite the volume of hints expected when I posted queries about the fun/pitfalls of running 2 EDP´s (maybe there isnt any). I also mentioned that I have a gig next week and was unsure if I would dare to try this new set-up (If my second EDP turns up that is...)
Well.. Ive decided, I dare... but I DO have some rack reconfiguring to do in advance, and so have ONE SPECIFIC QUESTION, (OK 2 questions) to those doing this "Oh Brother Where Art thy Sync" thang.
OK.. So..2 questions (that i cant suss from reading the manual)
1) When using Brother sync its possible to have either EDP as the Master and start with that one, and the other becomes the SLAVE. So what happens if you start with EDP1, come in with EDP2.. loop freely for a bit (changing the SubCycles on each) (BTW Im planning , for this performance at least to use my current EDP with FCB1010, and new one with the EDPs pedal... not midi note fiddling prior to the jig) So.. then, I STOP EDP1... what happens, does EDP2 stop too? OR.. is it still going?? Can I now use EDP2´s running loop as a master, and bring in EDP1 again, but now with that one as slave, or does EDP1 still know its MASTER, and do a Quant rec, when you start it up again? (000).
2) When doing the brother sync thing.. where cometh out the midi clock?? for running to all the other toys.. the master EDP ? or either?... If it only comes out the master, then thats OK, I can make a rule to ALWAYS start with that one (will probably do that anyway) Im assuming that you cant get DIFFERENT midi clock divisions from each EDP.. 8ths against 16ths for example...
Incase you need to know my rig, here it is... by all means suggest a route..
Currently My EDP is the clock source for my entire rig. Now I have Midi OUT into Repeater IN for Synching that, then Rptres THRU going to a Merge box to split the sig a bit, Then one out from merge going to 3 lots of effets in a row (MOFX, EF303, and RedSound Fed) the OTHER out from merge goes to Roland guitar synth IN for syncing the arpegiator
cheers, Mark
