drum machine sync (not dinsync)

I have that doepfer piece, and couldn't sync the linn drum via clock out. Check out this page:

  Download the pulse sample and sequence it right, it works amazingly!  It locks perfect. I had to raise the gain on the sample first though. I was very surprised that this method synced it so tight.

i remember using a sync box from a small company, the adress was something like dinsync.com or sync.com or something.. it was something like 30 dollar. it synced the linn very well from the tr909, but somehow as soon as the pc was master clock, the linn didn't stay in the beat for more than 2 measures. it's why i eventually sold it.

funny enough the new owner has absolutely no problems with it..

@carl: yes, that can work. there's also a smpte plugin for cubase (pretty sure its a vst) i think its freeware or comes with the program. that'll also do the trick on a lot of these type of machines, just route it through the audio out of your card and plug it into the machine.
i have a steinberg  SMP, and i use that to display smpte time on its big display.. very handy.

i sync my Linn and drumulator by feeding it a selfmade clocksignal from Logic

create a clocksignall track in your sequencer...with a softsampler...( use a rimshotsampl or somehing simular...program it 48times per quart note....)
then send the ourput to one of your ext outputs on your soundcard and send that to your clock-in on the drummachine..

it works overhere....
