Doepfer

hello anton,
thank you for the detailed explanation. i see that
such a module would be very usefull indeed.
something like this could be achived with the a152 in
combination with the a156 and a155. ]
but, the a152 has 8 cv outputs and 8 gate outs, not 12
at least, as the module you suggested. (if you connect
a common clock to the a155 and a152 and then connect
the a156 quantized cv out to the T & H input of the
a152, then you have 8 quantized cv outputs plus 8 gate
outputs from the a152). am i right?
regards,
Bakis.
