Re: AdrenaLinn and MIDI clock

["Tom Dauria" <tcdauria@earthlink.net>]

I can't tell if my clock problems stem exclusively from running off of the
repeater, or if the Adrenalinn has issues too.  Someone here mentionned 
that
it did, but that there is a ROM upgrade available to make things run
smoother.  I wrote the company asking about this, but I haven't heard back.
Yea, that would be way more helpful if you could make the metronome out go
to headphones.  Damn, it sure is frustrating Electrix folded!  I like the
Adrenalinn, it's fun sometimes, but sometimes not.  Some of the presets
totally suck, some are pretty cool, and you can program some fun stuff.  It
has the kind of vibe of an "all-in-one" for dumb guitar players box, I 
think
if you had alot of cooler stuff hooked up together it would be more fun to
use than the Alinn, but you get alot for the price with the little guy.
And, it's small on my pedalboard duuuuuuuddeee.
