Alesis SR-16 drum machine with Casio CTK-611 keyboard

[Chuck Rock]

I'd like to record a drum track on my Alesis SR-16 drum machine, and sync it to my Casio CTK-611 keyboard. Has anybody done this or anything similar that could give me advice. Can the ccasio send timimg data to keep the SR-16 in sync? If so how do you set it to send the data?

I have a ctk-611. Run an output from your computer to the keyboard input. Run the output from the keyboard to the drum machine. Make sure the keyboard out is assigned to channel 10. (click mixer, and select channel 10) You should be able to record on the drum machine from what the keyboard is sending to it. You might not need your computer in there.

Sorry to jump in on your thread but i haden't ever thought of that. I have a roland em55 and an alesis sr16, forgetting about computers can I use the sr16 to play the drums from midi files while I'm playing out?
