RE: EDP displays n id

Thanks, Kim.

I downloaded the midi-ox program today, based on earlier posts regarding:
EDP MIDI Clock reception, so I'll check it out.

Also, I guess I can use either Live or Cubase to sync everything, and make
all the instruments slave to it.  I'll see if that eliminates the EDP
stopping.

Most likely there is some problem related to that midi stream. The synth 
may
be sending a lot of stuff other than the clock. The echoplex should ignore
stuff not meant for it, so there is still some problem. Maybe the synth
sends some spurious data, or something is nor formatted right, hard to 
tell.
If all you need from that midi stream is the clock, you might be able to 
set
up the synth to only send clock and nothing else. Or get some external
filter box to filter everything else out.

If you use a PC, the midi-ox program is a great way to check midi data and
debug problems like this.
