Connect the sequencer modules to the same clock source. If you want to make sure that the sequencers
are aligned to each other, connect the (Global) Sync signal to the Rst inputs. This signal will reset the
sequencers to the first step. The Snc output will transmit a logic signal when a sequencer module starts
the #1 step.
In this example the Rst signal to the sequencers is taken from the MIDI Global module to the Note Se-
quencer, then transmitted from the Snc output to the Event Sequencer. The Event Sequencer in this ex-
ample has the loop mode turned on. This doesn't matter in this setup since the Rst signal received from
the Note Sequencer Snc output will reset it to step 1 after each loop of the Note Sequencer.

The last step setting of the first sequencer must be set to the total number of steps that you want in a serial
connection - if the loop mode is on. The Link output from the first sequencer will send a high logic signal
when it has completed step 16. This output should be connected to the next sequencers Rst input.
The loop mode of the second sequencer in this example is off. When the signal from the first sequencer's
Link output resets the second sequencer, the second sequencer will start sequencing its 16 steps. The first
sequencer, which was set to 32 steps, will be inactive during these 16 steps. When the second sequencer
has performed its 16 steps, the first sequencer restarts again.
Note that in this example you must make sure the Global Sync parameter is set to 8 beats. If set to the
default 4 beats, the first sequencer will automatically restart after 16 steps even though you set it to 32
steps. (See
page 53
and
"MIDI clock" on page 70
for info about Global Sync setting).
