Re: [Doepfer_a100] any more ideas for exotic future A100 modules? -> MIDI/DIN-Sync interface

2006-05-09 by Florian Anwander

I'd like to have a DIN-Sync to trigger interface. Just a simple thing:

- An incoming DIN-Sync should be given as seperate signals on 3,5mm sockets

- The DIN-Sync Start/Stop Gate-signal should be given additionally as 
separate Start and Stop triggers (required for A-155).

- The DIN-Sync clock should be available also diveded to selectable 
clock rates (1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, 1/6, 1/8, 1/12, 1/16, ...) in 
rhythmical usable relations[*]! Perhaps also pseudo-shuffled (for 1/12: 
1,3,4,6,7,9,10,12, for 1/16: 1,4,5,8,9,12,13,16)

- counter controlled slave-start/stop action. This is a feature I 
learned to know with the mungo enterprises sync2 (see 
http://home.netspeed.com.au/aistorm/sync2.html): an internal counter 
remembers which clock is the first beat of a bar. If you hit the stop 
button, the clock will go on until the next bar and stop to the first 
hit of the next bar. If you then hit the start button the feature will 
wait until the next bar and start then. (I have to admit, that I don't 
know how I could live without this feature the last thirty years. ;-))

- I wouldn't mind if this module also had MIDI-In

[*] Pay attention: the A-162 does NOT provide this, because the rising 
edges of the different divider outs are not synced to the first clock 
in, but to the second rising edge of the logical stage above.
