• Synchronizing the PR-300S with Other Devices
Sometimes, you may want to transfer music data
from other MIDI devices (such as external
sequencers) over to your PR-300S. Synchronizing
your PR-300S with an external sequencer is a good
way to do this. When your PR-300S is synchronized
to an external MIDI device, it will start and stop
automatically and stay in time with the external
device's tempos.
There are two di fferent configurations for
synchronizing your PR-300S with an external
sequencer: one where the entire performance except
Connecting the PR-300S to an External Sequencer
To connect the PR-300S to an External Sequencer:
(1)
Connect a MIDI cable from the external
sequencer's OUT jack to the PR-300S's IN jack.
(2) Set the external sequencer so that it transmits
MIDI clock messages to the PR-300S.
Setting PR·300S Synchronization
Now, we need to tell the PR-300S to synchronize
itself to the external sequencers clock messages:
tempo changes is transferred; one where the entire
performance including tempo changes is transferred.
The configuration used is determined by the status of
the Sync and Tempo Rec modes of the PR-300S (see
chart below).
