A newer "Multiples" module:
After seeing the poll for the new Buss Access module I thought it  
would be nice to have a A-183 Multiples 3 module that would be a Dual  
or Single active one-in-4-out multiple that would be good to fan out  
to voltage sensitive modules (CV in on VCOs of course).

A "Rhythm Sequencer"
It would be 16 ON-OFF-ON toggle switches with leds. It would have a  
CLOCK IN (rising edge). A RESET input jack tied to the 3rd position  
of the toggle switches. A "AND" input jack that would be normallized  
to the CLOCK IN and would have a "Logic AND" function applied to it  
and the 1st position of the toggle switch row. The results show up on  
two outputs, a GATE and TRIGGER out. So you put a clock in and when  
you want a beat you flip the toggle to the 1st position, To have a  
rest or no beat put the toggle to the middle position. To make less  
then 16 steps flip the step one number higher to the 3rd position -  
great for live jumping between sequence lengths. This row could also  
have a have GATE and TRIGGER outs allowing two different GATE/TRIGGER  
sequence outs (that never share a beat).

Hi

> A "Rhythm Sequencer"
Yes Yes Yes Yes!!!!

But see my suggestions for a modular sequencing system ("ceterum 
censeo..."):
This should not be a trigger sequencer, but a switch sequencer (with 
DG409).

This means for the switch sequencer:

Module one:
16 three position switches.
Center position is off (pulldown resistor to ground).
Upper position is fed by bus, which is fed to a socket, which is 
normalized to the trigger.
Upper position is connected for each switch to a socket. This row of 
sockets is normalized to a bus, which is fed by socket. This socket 
again is normalized to a trigger with adjustable gate length.

By the usage of normalize sockets you also could switch in sequence 
between different audio- or CV-signals (not only triggers).

Module two:
Either A154
Or a simplified version of A-154 with
- clockgenerator, Tempo
- ext. clock in
- clock out
- clock out Gate length
- reset (four switches or one HEX encoder switch)
- ext. reset in


Module three:
similar like module one, but instead of the switches there should be 
pots, which are connected to the sockets.

This system could be a followup to the A-155 (module numbers A-155-1/2/3?)

hello james, florian,
ok, looks like new polls are on the way...
best regards,
Bakis.

hello florian, dieter,
what about this suggestion?
should i create a poll about a 16 step sequencer in
two parts(one part for the trigger rows[the three
position 16 trigger switches] and the second part for
the cv rows?)
please, tell me the form that the poll should have,
and if its needed.
best regards,
Bakis.

In principle a modular sequencer with separate units for gate/trigger rows
and CV outputs is not a real challenge for us as it's very similar to the
A-155. But I think it is necessary also to discuss the mechanical solution
for such a sub-system as this the critical part from my point of view. So
far the mechanical construction of the A-100 is based on the 3U height and
all modules are 3U. For separate gate/trigger and CV units we'll need very
long horizontal devices (16 switches, sockets or controls in one row) that
do not fit so far to the mechanical concept of the A-100.

And I hope that nobody expects that each poll with good positive results
will be realized. The number of polls with positive results exceeds our
possibilities by far.

Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer

Though long horizontal modules would be an optimum, also the solution of 
the A155 (two rows of eight switches) is possible; and also something 
like two vertical rows of eight switches could be a possible solution.

My suggestion also is not written in stone. I could imagine 8-step 
modules too, which can be cascaded.
