Hey, does anyone know if there's a midi through function for KP3?

Not sure I have that term correct mind you.

I have my sequencer clock feeding my synth, and my synth is feeding my kp3. I want to use the kp3 to feed external drum machines, but when I hook the midi out to the drum machines there is no sync.

So is there a setting to output clock when the kaoss pad is in external or auto mode?

While we're at it, does anyone have a good definition of auto mode?

there's only midi in and midi out. No midi through. Sorry pal.

That seems like a bizarre decision for a device that brags about tempo locked effects and beat oriented sampling. Oh well. Thanks for the response.

What's preventing you from putting the drum machine in between the synth and the KP3?

Otherwise just buy a JL Cooper thru box.

Well, nothing so far. But god forbid I get another piece of gear that doesn't have midi through, right? It's more just a shock. I'll check out that JL Cooper Thru box though. I'm probably gonna be having trouble with latency eventually anyway.
