Allow me to clarify just what this would do for you, because it doesn't
sound that spectacular on first reading.  First of all, remember that there
is a clock signal which, presumably, is also controlling other things at the
same time (like a drum machine).  With this clock inverter, the original
funky "Chameleon" line:

/--/--/---/-/-/-/--/--/---/-/-/-

becomes this (to my ears) much more rhythmically "urgent" line against the
original un-inverted clock pulse:

-//----/---/-/-/-//----/---/-/-/

One can foresee all sorts of interesting uses for this effect, and not just
in the domain of funk.  J.S. Bach would have had a field day with this sort
of thing (think the "Art of Electronic Fugue").
