Tascam 2488 MKII and MIDI using Alesis SR-18

Sorry to dig up this necro thread, but I recently upgraded from Alesis SR16 to SR18, and now Midi sync won't work from my Tascam DP-32. I have a TC Electronic D-TWO with Midi In/Out/Thru so tried the fix listed above and it did not work. Do I really have to buy an old MidiVerb to make the SR18 receive enough voltage from the DP-32 to trigger Midi? This seems like crazy talk. I think I could buy back my SR16 for less than that, but I really wanted the new samples in the SR18 and assumed it would be a straight-forward upgrade. :mad: Thanks.

UPDATE: It works! I just needed to set the DP32 Midi Sync Generator to CLOCK.

DP-32 settings:
MMC
MODE = MASTER
Device ID = ALL
REMOTE CONTROL
MODE = MASTER
PROGRAM CHANGE EEF = ON
CONTROL CHANGE = ON
SYNC
GENERATOR = ON

SR18 settings:
Page 1 MIDI CH = 10
Page 5 CLOCK IN = ON
