I've been thinking of an 'auxiliary' sequencer to do timing. 
Like a toggle switch for each step to set normal, 1/2, and 
1/4 step time. But now I think a hex thumbnail per step 
might be the way to go. Or maybe a decade one and use 
the first 8 steps. I wonder if a zero would give a short 
enough step time to act like a skip. I don't even have a real 
circuit or know if I'm switching R or C yet, so this is just 
kind of rambling.
