Hooking Up A Roland DR-770 Drum Machine To A Roland SC-8850 Sound Module

hi fellow Roland Wizards,

I stand humbly before you with my manuals
in my hand, in great awe and admiration.

I seek the wisdom of the ages.

I've purchased a Roland SC-8850 Sound Canvas Sound Module and it works great with the Cakewalk Express sequencing software and my computer.

I've added a Roland (Boss) DR-770 Drum Machine to the set up, but cannot seem to get it to sync up with the Cakewalk Sequencer.

I've got a Midi cable running from the Sound Canvas Out to the DR-770 Midi In. I have the DR-770 Midi switch set to Midi Channel 10. (which just blinks for some
reason, shouldn't it accept an Enter command
and stop blinking?)

Now I play my sequencer and the drum machine is not triggered by the sequencer, which means I messed up somewhere.


Do i need to go from my computer into my drum machine?

Or do I need to set the Cakewalk software up somehow?

Right now I have the drums on the Cakewalk software set to Midi Channel 10.

Thanks

The Brilliant One
