A163 as a clock divider

2002-11-10 by Joe Buechler

Okay, I think the A154 as currently proposed doesn't do variable step 
length and midi sync at the same time, I believe the clock input jack 
shorts out the clock generator.

Now I'm back to thinking about buying an A163 VC divider for to get 
variable step length with midi sync. But ringmod's question got me 
thinking. The A163 doesn't have a reset input like the A160 clock 
divider does. Won't it end up in an indeterminate state when you reset 
the master clock? That would mean the clock pulses from the A163 could 
be as much as 180 degrees out of phase with the master clock, a 
half-step delay.

Has anyone tried this? Is there any way to do what I want to do?

Joe
