SLAVING TO OTHER MIDI DEVICES
The diagram below shows a relatively simple system, where the W5/W7 is the master
keyboard controller, and an external drum machine is acting as the master clock driving
the W5/W7 s sequencer; the W5/W7 s sequencer and keyboard are in turn controlling an
additional tone generator.
With this system the drum machine s MIDI OUT is connected to the W5/W7 s MIDI
IN, and the W5/W7 s MIDI OUT is connected to the drum machine s MIDI IN. The tone
generator s MIDI IN is connected to the drum machine s MIDI THRU. Each device s stereo
outputs are plugged into the two channels of an external audio mixer, which is in turn
plugged into a stereo amp and speakers for monitoring.
With this system the W5/W7 s sequencer clock can be controlled by the drum ma-
chine, or rhythm note data can be fed from the drum machine into the W5/W7 s se-
quencer. Any MIDI messages sent from the W5/W7 to the tone generator will be ignored
by the drum machine.
