Nice patch. I tried it out, adding a little PDIV here and there, and it has lots of
possibilities.
I recently took another look at the SSG coupler output as a trigger for various events
and with interesting results.
I have questions regarding the SSG cycle jacks. Do they have any function other than
patching to their respective In jacks? When something else is feeding the input, I
can't get the cycle jack to trigger anything unless I run it thru the PDIV or Boolean
module first. Is this one of those "leading edge" & hysterisis issues?
Thanks,
jmr
