Well, I can think of a couple of ways but not a real elegant solution yet. The easiest would be to use a programmer. Take the clock into a /n comparator (or pulse divider whichever you have more of) set to the sequence length, use the divided output as the clock in of a programme

The FAQ mentions as reasons to go digital 1) the need for ultra stable oscillators and 2) the need to reduce distortion. I'd hazard a guess that both those ideals run contrary to the properties of a nice sounding analogue synth. Put another way, IMO the best sounding synths have
