Marco,

I noticed people are starting to post answers that do not address the
same question, so I re-read your mail but can still not make out if
you (1) just want to use the SR16 as another MIDI surface for manual
control or (2) will program MIDI sequences on the SR16 and send them
into the EDP to make stuff happening inside the looper? There's a lot
to both contexts.
