external inputs issues

[mind_over_gravity]

hello members
i tried to connect my dr-880 drum machine in to the external inputs on the ti
the sound that i get was very bad :? , it was like a hundreds of filters mixed up with the original sound of my drum machine .
i also tried to tweak some knobs but it didn't get any better .
is it possible to get a original sound only with 1 or two filters mixed with it?
can i use arp mode on external input ?
on access website i was listening to mp3 example of drums loop coming from external inputs and in the first part of the pattern you can hear a nice and clean drum loop is it possible on the ti :?:
thanks .

I don't have the TI, but on my C the inputs work exactly as you want them to.

The appegiator is great for using on the inputs. You can have the appegiator running the filters only for example, which will give you a nice gated/slicer effect - very cool on vocal lines.

I think reading the manual regarding external inputs will help you.

In my Classic, there is a program called INPUT. All the effects are OFF for this particular program that is why you hear what you input at default. Make sure the program you are using has all the FX turned OFF.

Have you tried using patch ROM-A 125 >>INPUT<< ?

thanks Ben i didn't notice this patch before 8O
now its working fine.
but the arp working only on dynamic mode and some clicks noises mixed up with the final texture also the arp don't get any sync in this patch. :?
although i get a nice arp sync in most of the other patches.
in s/pdif the ti write that i have illegal rate or something ?!
