Re: More EDP sync problems

["Doug Cox" <dougcox@pdq.net>]

Oops.  Two things:

1) I see in your note that you made sure Sync=Out.  Sorry, didn't mean to
imply that you hadn't.

2) The next, onliest thing I can think of comes from reading the manual...
"Sync=Out... MIDI clocks are sent out the MIDI Out port, **provided
ControlSource is not OFF**.

I didn't even know that.  Is your ControlSource set to OFF on the LoopIV
machine?

Now I'm really out of ideas.
