i haven't even tested to see if MIDI sync on my 909 works right.

right now i'm using a x0xb0x as my master, but that's kind of  
expensive for just sync.

another drum machine that has DIN sync is the TR-707 or TR-727.  
however, trendy circuit benders have driven the price of those things  
through the roof.

when we started this, there was a guy selling MIDI-DIN sync  
convertors on ebay for like 50 bucks. he has FO'd since, however. if  
there was enough interest we could make something happen in the  
meantime before our master clock module is ready.
