Re: EDP Sync with MPC 1000

["Michael and Nikki" <cosmicchai@charter.net>]

I'm having a similar problem. My EDP is synced to an Alesis drum machine
with MIDI clock, and my SWITCHQUANT parameter is set to LOOP. It will move
from the first loop to the second flawlessly. When I go back from the 
second
to the first, however, the second loop restarts then changes back to the
first after a few beats. This throws the time out.
Someone responded to my post and said I should make sure the drum machine
and EDP were set to different MIDI channels, otherwise the drum machine
could also be sending note messages.
As soon as I figure out what that means I'll try it.
Maybe it applies to your problem.
Good luck
