RE: [xl7] MIDI Clock issues

2002-03-11 by Roger Powell

The XL-7 cannot sync to external MIDI clock. I spoke
with Emu support and it's a known issue (how could it
not be?) and supposed to be getting fixed with the
next OS.

You can't use this box in a live situation, unless all
you want to do is play back one pattern (and the box
must be MIDI clock master.)

It's such a great synth/seq -- too bad it has this
terrible flaw.
