Can somebody help me out wiyh this?

With my AN1X i want to control my drumcomputer(Tempo).

With all my other synths i can do this, why not with the AN1X.

I use the midiout from the AN1X and send from there to my drumcomputer 
Midiin. Than i make on the drumcomputer the setting tempo= external.
But nothing happends, it won't evn start.

As i did say, with all my other synths i can do this.
Who can help me out.

Hello !
i suppose that you want to sync your drumbox with the arpeggiator or 
sequencer of the AN1X , right ? I've had the opposite problem : sending 
unwanted arpeggios to an expander....
On the control panel matrix you will find "MIDI  Ptn Tx Ch" a.k.a. 
Pattern Transmit Channel. Check if  it is on the same channel than your 
drumbox ; if not, select the right one. It could be different from the 
keyboard channel, set by "MIDI Tx Ch" with a different combination of knobs.
I know, this control matrix has a lot of possibilities, but it is rather 
obscure and boring to use.... and the so called "User Manual" is not 
very useful, because it is awfully structured. You'll have to jump all 
the time from page 39 to page 45, then back to page 16, not to mention 
the appendixes ....
By comparison with my other instruments, the Casio and Kawa\ufffd manuals are 
10 times better, and even the small company RedSound has issued a decent 
user manual.
Cheers

The AN1x does not transmit MIDI Clock. You can synchronize the AN1x Arp/Seq to an 
external clock - such as a drum computer - but not the other way around (as you've found.)
