Arp thru to sequencer??
Hi, I just got my Arp and I'm having a blast. I have my keyboard going into my Arp which has a midi thru to my sequencer (sq-64). Would it be better to go keyboard to sequencer thru to the Arp instead? Or does it not really matter? Thanks

In short, it doesn't really matter the order, so long as the first device is set the thru. If you're really worried about latency, and if you are playing the synth live from your keyboard, I'd prioritize the Synth. ARP needs input in advance of any chord change anyway, so your input notes will always need to be slightly ahead of planned chord changes anyway. MIDI can handle 300 messages per second, so latency doesn't become an issue until you have a lots of MIDI flowing round. In the case where you have multiple synths, I would definitely invest in a MIDI Splitter, which sends the messages in parallel.
