[sdiy] Divide down question

[cheater cheater]

Hey guys,
in a divide-down architecture, every key has a divide-down 'level'
which then gets used in the same note but an octave lower.

Does any amplification happen at each stage?

If I press multiple keys from the same 'class' (e.g. C1, C2, C3) will
any 'amplitude stealing' happen?

Where can I read more about divide-down synths? I am not yet good
enough to read the schematics just like that; I tried googling around
but couldn't find much of substance.


Thanks
