Mark,
this may not be exactly what you want, but I have the
Korg MS2000, and what I've been doing through Live 4, say,
for a one bar loop, is to set up a midi clip with a whole note for 4 beats to
trigger the MS2000, and on the same row or scene, set up a one shot midi clip, 5
beats long for the EDP. there's only 2 quarter notes in this midi clip, on
the 1st beat, a D1 to trigger the Record button, and on the 5th beat, a D#1 to
trigger the Overdub button.
by clicking (one way or the other)
on the scene launch button for that row, you trigger all the clips at the same
time. this syncs up everything perfectly to start with, and I let the loop
for the MS2000 go for a couple of measures, so it layers nice and strongly,
until I start doing things on the
synth.
you can also set up on the same scene, midi clips for as many beats as
you want, to play a drum machine, or a bass line, for example. this
get all the "pots" cooking in sync, and then you can start "stirring" them up,
so to speak. (boy, this "cooking" jive really dates me
:)
you also have to route the Korg MS2000R channel to the EDP, one way or
another.
if you have more than the synth
going, you'd probably want to set up everything to slave to Live 4, because they
do start to drift after awhile.
hope I didn't mis-understand you completely!
Tom

me so I can’t quite remember what the terms are called, but on the EDP, there
are various midi notes sent out on Start loop, 8ths notes and the loop point. I
believe it is there for recording onto a sequencer (and triggering the EDP later
from these notes??? Dunno? ) But I have a question. I have the
Korg MS2000R synth and it has a built in analog sequencer. Right now I have to
make a loop (to set the bpm) and then very precisely hit a key on the Korg for
it to be in synch. Last night I tried “Playing the synth” from these midi notes
that EDP spits out. But all I want is ONE note PER BAR (I guess the loop point
note) not all the other notes. There doesn’t seem to be anyway of specifying
this on EDP, so I was wondering if I can “filter out” all notes I don’t need???
I DO use a laptop in my setup, but would prefer NOT to route the midi to and
from this, I’m looking for a (CHEAP) box to do this with (or a circuit, I’m
pretty handy with a soldering iron) Any ideas, or off the wall solutions
appreciated.. (Actually off the wall suggestions
are positively encouraged!!!) Cheers Mark |
