Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Excellent question. 

Years ago, I had multiple user presets for switching between clock sources. One was for Cakewalk as master, another had it as a slave. I also had test motu presets for different gear as clock masters.  Those might have been in the Win98SE motu console, which is not compatible with clockworks. I know I did recreate some versions with SONAR and WinXP. I will take a look for them.    

As you probably know, the midi express model has 8 factory presets and 8 user presets. When I do live performance, I will either use my own settings, or sometimes the factory presets--usually live keyboards, merge all, merge some,or dual split.

I don't do much midi recording to DAW (SONAR, in my case), but when I did, I would use of of the sequencer presets (fps is unimportant to me). Also, when I dump E-Mu presets to SONAR (backing up banks, individual presets, and multis), I use one of the sequencer settings.

I was thinking about that in connection with you previous post.

I never figured out what was different about the sequencer presets; I just knew that when I did something with the sequencer, the throughput worked. Your setup has insipred me to want to sort this one out (and maybe learn to use the MTP-AV!!!!).

Later this weekend (possible this afternoon/evening), I will pull out both motu manuals to see if its explained. I will also set up several clock sources and try to push the limits in order to sort these things out.
