Re: tap tempo to midi clock ???????

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

In true loop fashion, this particular piece of the equation comes back to a
discussion from long ago.  Mathias detailed the construction of a cord that
can run from an EDP "BeatSync" jack, into the tap temp jack of a Vortex,
which will cause the Vortex to slave it's clock to the EDP.

So, in Neil's setup, he could also slave the Vortex to the clock of the 
drum
machine (via the EDP).

Doug

P.S. - Search the archives for Vortex;cable to find the details on
construction.  I did it, and I'm a neophyte on electronics construction.
The effect is amazing.
