- Thank you, and congratulations on your choice of the BOSS DR-880 Dr. Before using this unit, carefully read the sections entitled:. USING THE UNIT SAFELY (page 2–3). IMPORTANT NOTES (page 4–5) These sections provide important information concerning the proper operation of the unit.
- Logic Pro needs to be the Master and your DR-880 the Slave because Logic can't receive MIDI Clock synchronization signals. It won't work the other way around. The DR-880 has an 'Auto' Sync mode that can switched between Slave and Master mode automatically. Just set your DR-880 to 'Auto' mode and start playback in Logic.

Joseph, I'll give you another option. I use a computer to record analog tracks only. This is sort of old-fashioned, but this is how I would do it.Get a small, good quality mixing board. You can get one for around $60.
Get an inexpensive multi-track recording program, like Power Tracks, another $60.
Connect the stereo output of the mixer to the sound card line input or motherboard sound input if that's what you have.
Connect the analog output of the DR5 to a channel on the mixer, adjust the tone.
Adjust levels using software program VU meter.
Record your drums in real time on track 1. I find it easier to add personality to the drum arrangement this way, since you can arrange the song ahead of time, then record it.
Play it back while recording your bass on track 2.
Play it back while recording rhythm guitar on track 3.
Save the file as a wave. You can later make a CD or convert to mp3s.
Now you can play PSG along with your recorded trio.
There you have it. No need to use the computer as a MIDI sequencer.
I actually use an external sequencer for all of my MIDI messages. I mix 4 MIDI instruments together for one track, to save time. then record in analog: electric bass, acoustic rhythm, piano, lead guitar, etc., then make a wave file.
I never did like MIDI sequencer programs like Cakewalk, CuBase, etc., You can get drained of a lot of time an energy editing MIDI using a computer, unless you have a year or more experience, then it still challenges your patience. That's why I do it this way.
