SETTING THE CLOCK & START POINT

WHEN WORKING WITH A MIDI SEQUENCER

This article will speak to clocking issues when using the AW2816 and AW4416 with an external sequencer.

Units like the Motif keyboard workstation, RS7000 remix studio or any computer based MIDI sequencer can

be used with great advantage with the AWs. Learning about the synchronization of the units is critical. Also

of great use will be the lining up of the START TIMES of both units. The AWs have been taught how

musicians keep time (Measures and Beats) and it can even provide an intelligent METRONOME to reference

your recordings no matter how complex the time signature and tempo changes.
