Accept External Clock Data (Clock In); Send Clock Data To Other Devices (Clockout) - ION Electronic Drum Kit Owner's Manual

6.5 PAGE 5: ACCEPT EXTERNAL CLOCK DATA (CLOCK IN)
The display shows CLOCK IN. To have the IDM01 recognize clock (timing) messages present
at its MIDI input, use the INC/DEC buttons to select ON (if no clock messages are present, the
IDM01 will follow its internal clock tempo). Select OFF to have the IDM01 ignore clock
messages and follow its internal clock tempo regardless of what timing data appears at the
MIDI in.
When using the IDM01 as an expander module, set CLOCK IN to OFF so that timing signals
don't start playing a Pattern.
Background The IDM01 can have its tempo set by another device (this overrides the internal clock tempo) if:
• The external device (sequencer, drum machine, etc.) generates MIDI timing signals.
• These signals go from the external device's MIDI out to the IDM01's MIDI in.
• CLOCK IN is ON.
6.6 PAGE 6: SEND CLOCK DATA TO OTHER DEVICES (CLOCKOUT)
The display shows CLOCKOUT. To have the IDM01 generate timing data at its MIDI out, use
the INC/DEC buttons to select ON. Select OFF to inhibit MIDI timing signals from appearing at
the MIDI out jack.
