That's a great idea. I've been using the output of my A174 joystick in the same way. But a clock voltage, unlike the joystick, is always fixed, so you can count on the intervals on the CV2 pot being the same every time you use it. And, you don't use up an output on the 174. The A

I´ve solved the problem by using the A-161 clock/trigger sequencer. Pick any stage that´s lit and patch that into the CV2 of the A-110 oscillator and set the interval by the CV2 pot. Now you can tune the oscillators several octaves apart. And it doesn´t involve mods to the inside

I recently emailed Dieter Doepfer with this very question. He told me that the range of the tuning knob is set by the resistor R5, which is a 1M from the factory. Reducing the value of this resistor increases the tuning range. The service manual for the A110 on the A110 info page
