The most obvious is using a VC switch to switch between "sections" of 
a sequence.  With 2 8 step sequencers you have 4 section of 4 beats.  
With clock dividers and VC switches you can easily create long 
sequences with repeating and cycling motifs.

Another idea would be to clock your sequencers at different rates to 
get odd timing, syncopation, hocketing, triplets, etc.  You can also 
get a 16 step sequence from a single 8 step sequencer with two rows 
of CV.  Just use a VC switch to switch between the rows on every 
cycle.
