Thank you both for your replies. Very helpful information. The SR16 is indeed set to receive MIDI clock, so that is not the issue. I have a feeling there is something going on with the CTK 6250 that does not allow this. It amazes me how limited the MIDI settings are on the 6250. It only takes up about one quarter of a page in the manual!

I am trying to synchronize a song that I have programmed into the sequencer of my Casio CTK 6250, with a rhythm pattern in my Alesis SR 16 drum machine. I am using a Kenton USB MIDI host to connect the CTK 6250 to the SR 16, which has a standard MIDI in connection. I have made all the proper connections, and I can tell that information from the Casio is being sent through the USB MIDI host to the SR16, because when I put the SR16 in OMNI mode, hitting a key on the Casio will trigger the corresponding drum sound on the SR16. However, I cannot seem to get the song sequenced in the Casio to synch with a programmed rhythm pattern on the SR 16. I have looked at all the MIDI Setup settings on the SR16, tried adjusting various settings, but it still won't work. The MIDI channels on both devices are set to channel 1. The SR16 is set to receive external clock. Is there a way to adjust the clock settings on the CTK 6250? If you could offer any advice with this, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Hi. My CTK 6250 has been working well, but today when I turned it off, a horizontal line appeared in the LCD display. This never happened before. Now the line seems to be there permanently. It is there even with the power off. Anyone know why it did this? Is there a way I can get rid of the line? Thanks.
