Connect the KROSS's MIDI IN to your external MIDI
device's MIDI OUT, or connect the KROSS's USB B
connector to your computer's USB port.
Set MIDI Clock (see page 117) to External MIDI or
External USB.
Note: If the KROSS is set to MIDI Clock= Auto, it will also
synchronize to the external MIDI device in the same way if
MIDI timing clock messages are being received from the
external device.
Synchronization to MIDI clock
The arpeggiator function will synchronize to a tempo based
on the external MIDI clock timing.
Synchronization with MIDI realtime commands
In Sequencer mode, Song Start, Continue, and Stop
messages that the KROSS receives will control song
playback and recording just as when you use the front panel
SEQUENCER (START/STOP) button. The Drum
Track function also will be controlled in the same way as
when you use the front panel SEQUENCER
(START/STOP) button. (see "Synchronization with song
stop")

Master operation

If you want an external MIDI device or computer to
synchronize to the KROSS's MIDI timing clock and
realtime commands, connect the KROSS's MIDI OUT to
your external MIDI device's MIDI IN, or connect the
KROSS's USB port to your computer's USB port.
Set MIDI Clock to Internal.
Note: The same applies if MIDI Clock=Auto and MIDI
realtime clock messages are being transmitted. (see
page 117)
Synchronization via MIDI clock
The connected external MIDI device will synchronize to the
MIDI clock of the KROSS.
