Thanks Debroglie…

If I'm getting you right, I need to create a drum pattern in the computer and set the 909 to receive midi then change the shuffle to check it out? The way I've got it setup at the moment is that the computer slaves to the 909 (ie the other way round, like you said in your earlier post) - I'm using Ableton Live and can't seem to set the blasted latency on my soundcard right, so I need to manually time adjust every recording which is a pain!

So you bounce your patterns down and sequence from the computer?…I'm trying to learn the functions of the sequencer in the 909, but yeh I'm getting into bouncing down some loops and messing with them following your earlier post, you can create some mad stuff that way.

Anway, thanks for the advice...
