Re: A163 as a clock divider

2002-11-12 by ringmod45

hi Joe, i think you just solved the problem, hypothethically speaking.
the A190 does have a software LFO in it. now, the only snag is that 
it is only free running. 

a couple of questions to Mr.Doepfer.

would it be possible to have the software LFO sync to midi clock?

would the software LFO be accurate enough to perform as a clock 
source for the A154?

would it be possible to have a divider for the software Lfo?

if the A190 could be somehow reprogrammed to have the LFO sync, this 
would solve problem, i guess.

Joe, i am currently using The Encore Expressionist, it has 3 LFO's 
which can be modulated on separate midi channels and has a re-trig 
parameter to sync the LFO to the number of midi clocks that are 
inputted into the Expressionist.

i think, IIRC, you mentioned before that you own the MCV 24. if the 
MCV 24 has sync LFO's, you could probably use the MCV24 to do the job.

regards,
RM
