thanks Scott - and that's some pretty severe music you've got there!

  I use the AND gates with the digital outs of the A-149-2 and another
  pulse generator to create very intermittent gate events.

  If you use the XOR gates with a random pulse (whose trigger rate is
  synchronized to the clock) and a clock at audio rates (use a frequency
  divider for good results), you can achieve really good pitched noise
  effects, similar to Atari 2600's sound generation scheme. The 166 has
  a maximum input frequency of a few khz, but it does sound really cool
  when it starts aliasing.
  http://musictechnology.northwestern.edu/~meatlog/digital1.mp3 is a
  recording of such a patch. The other gate outputs are mixed in for
  thickening (with the AND output out of phase), and the whole thing's
  run through the BBD.
