By sequencer, I mean a dedicated MIDI sequencer box like the Yamaha Rm1x or those Roland's.....

I'm talking about orchestrating multiple synths and drum machines and such.....like how the fuck is all that done when there's no display like there is in Cubase and Cakewalk?

I'm starting to work now in Cubase. So far, I have it exporting MIDI clock to my ER-1 and running two seperate timbres from my Z1. It's fucking wicked and looks like it's gonna work well.

Additionally, you can record WAVE within Cubase, so I don't have to use Cool Edit Pro (externally) which drains more processing power.

Do you know if there's a way to use the EA
and ER in conjunction so that the
rythymic(linear) aspect of it could be done
with the er, and the pitches entered with the
ea? Kinda like one sending CV and one
sending gate? I mean I know theres
probably no function in them that does that,
but would it be possible somehow?

I aint tryin to be a smartass but considering that the sequencers on both work basically the same why can't you just use those midi ports to sync them up and step program the ea-1 in the places on da grid then adjust the gate time and note on the Ea-1?

just wonderin?

Trypt: On the ER-1 you can enter the note (pitch) and the step that you want to use. I don't think you can control the gate time though but you can do all the above on the EA-1. The ER-1 is perfect for sequencing drum machines and the EA-1 is perfect for sequencing synths and drum machines.

H: You can.
