[A6] i would pay Alesis for a new os/bug fix

[J.C. Jordan]

if i'm not mistaken, this issue has been discussed, and i don't remember the
exact outcome of the discussion, but i believe the gist of it is that what
you're asking for is not possible. i don't remember why. i don't know what you
are using it for, but when i first got the synth i thought uneven BPM
increments were a bad thing too, but now, for my purposes, if i want an exact
BPM number, i just sync it to something else. if i want to use the A6's
internal clock, i sync everything to it and get it close to the number i want,
regardless if the display says it's exactly 125 BPM or whatever (the display
values for 120 BPM and 125 BPM are exact though, 120.000 and 125.000). i don't
really need to sync the A6 to another synth without using midi. i don't usually
use the A6 as a master clock, but if i want 130 BPM, 129.987 is close enough
for me. but maybe not for you. btw, it is the only polyphonic synth in my
studio.
