Re: [Fwd: EDP incoming MIDI Clock filtering options?]

well...um....what Matthias said :-)
no sync in OD


the thing about StartPoint being in the wrong place  is more mysterious 
though.

1) when OD ends there's an auto-startpoint as sync is regained.
2) if the StartPoint was "wrong" from the first loop, it wouldn't show up 
until you tried to Restart. That's why I think either hit Rec at exact 
place when making the first loop, or use Quantise( but I'm not sure if you 
can quantise the start or recording to incoming MIDI).
