Re: Controlling an Echoplex via PC or Mac

[Adam Hart <loop.troop@yahoo.com>]

Eureka!  You have caused a new neural pathway to form in my head!  I get it, Par!!

                                                      *yay*

For the record: *No* version of Garageband sends clocks - not even the new one, so I hear. 

Thanks for your help, Par; it was paramount!!!  Thanks to all others in this community as well for your guidance and expertise.  I look forward to reading and hearing your thoughts.

I'm giddy as a school girl!

Adam

Any software MIDI sequencer would do. You said you just bought a Mac  
- doesn't Garageband come bundled with them these days. I would start  
by checking out if GB can (1) sync  by MIDI Clock to your EDP/Boss  
and (2) send out MIDI notes to control your EDP actions. I only have  
GarageBand 1.0 here and I guess a lot have changed in today's  
version, so I can't do that check for you. Tracktion is another free  
(or almost) sequencer that you could check out.
