Re: A163 as a clock divider

Hi ringmod

Program Change isn't CV, though. I clock the A155 from the A190 all 
the time for midi sync, but when I want variable step length, I clock 
the A155 from the A147 VC LFO, and patch the A155 pre out back to the 
A147 to control the length of each step. You can't control the A190 
divisor with a CV from the A155.

The A154 clock generator, as I understand it, will work identically to 
the A147 for this purpose, with the exception that is also has PWM.

I have two problems with this setup: No quantization of step length, 
and no midi sync. A VC divider would solve both of them, but as I 
mentioned, I'm not sure that the A163 will work correctly because it 
can't be reset when the master clock is reset.

So, I'm back to where I started. Instead of a clock generator, I'd 
like the A154 to have a VC divider, with PWM.
