looking at a graphic of the TEV, there are 2 sets of 8 output jacks. For inputs, there's a clock, up/down, and reset. NO trigger inputs. Looks like all the triggering is done by touching the keypads, but not by external trigger signal. Carlos wrote: > > cool, now my only question

Hi John, Yeah I know what sync is, that it eliminates the beating when two osc's frequenties are locked in together. It's the way of getting razor sharp sounds in stead of the more organic, floating sounds like f.e. strings. But is soft syc then only the soft variant of hard sync

soft sync is used when you want two or more oscillators to track together, in sync, *without* beating. If you patch two oscillators from, say, your SSG Stepped Out into their 1V/Oct inputs, they will track together, but no matter how well you tune them, there will be some beating
