Hi

I was wondering if this would be possible.
I love using my Sp-1200 at double speed so lets say tempo 180 bpm on the SP but would like to be able to connect a Roland TR-606 to it and have that running at 90 bpm. I was wondering if it would be possible for JJ to write a conversion that would basically multiply or divide the incoming clock data so that the MPC receives 180 bpm and sends 90 bpm out. I am just not aware of any piece of hardware that does this and if the MPC could do that conversion it would be really awesome for my setup.

Thanks

I just double the resolution on my 606 to stay in time. It also allows you to program in some funky swing. Another trick is to set your 606 to 3/3 and the bar length to 24 (48 for double rez) for extra funk.

I wonder if jj could implement a midi clock shuffle. I put it in the request thread a while ago. The same idea as the Innerclock Systems gadgets.

Yeah I have been using it in double res and really like the result, it's mostly for some live applications where I would really like it to run at normal tempo.
Check this out though it's way to expensive but pretty cool.

Aye. The InnerclockSystems one is mega expensive too :(

Imagine if JJ implemented a simple swing/shuffle option to the clock out though.
I have no idea how easy/hard/possible that would be.... but just putting it out there :P

Put in ur idea to the Feature Request thread... u never know.
