	Hi Bakis and Mr.Doepfer, 
	
	Since your are planning new features and it looks like the A154
will 
	be redesigned. I would like to remind you of this feature i
wrote 
	about in a prior post.

	I was thinking some more about the resync feature, here's an new
idea.
	
	if the A154 is is 2 x 8 mode, the toggle would behave like this,
	
	Up position; stops the clock from sending a clock pulse to the
A155
	
	middle position; sends the clock pulse to the A155 without
positional 
	sync to the A155
	
	Momentary bottom position; you hold the toggle down, the A154
waits 
	until the last step, i.e. the 8th step comes around from the
other 
	A155 or from its own counter and unlatches the momentary switch
and 
	syncs to the 1st step. so if you want to throw the sync off you
just 
	throw the toggle up to the off for however long you need to
offset 
	the from the other A155 and back to the middle position to send
the 
	clock pulse back in.
	
	now when you have both of the A155's in 2 x 8 mode the clock
pulse 
	would need a counter for this function alone.
	
	once you go to 1 x16 mode the togggle switch become inactive or
you 
	could use them for another function like a first step toggle and
a 
	last step toggle, just as you would on the MAQ16/3. now this
would be 
	mucho cool. this will definitely bring the A154 & A155 combo to
new 
	analogue sequencing heights. these are very strong sync features
that 
	would add greater interactivity to the A155's. 
	
	What do you think? Should we do a poll about the sync options?
