[sdiy] best method for clocking modular to DAW?

I just use a MIDI->CV converter to generate a gate and use that as my clock.
It has the benefit of allowing you to program complex rhythmic structures
more easily than could be achieved by modifying a clock signal in the
modular world.

Today i was trying to lock my BABY 10 sequencer to my Logic song.

What i was doing was sending out a steady hi-hat on a drum machine plug in
and sending this into Ian's 
T/G/T/S/H (which is a sample hold module but i use it a lot for converting
audio to a gate or trigger signal)

I then take a gate (or trigger) out of this and feed it into the clock in of
the BABY 10.

I then take the Gate out from this and plug it into my adsr.

So far the results have been mixed

If i want the sequence to be as fast as the DAW tempo, i have to program the
original hi hat in double or triple time.

so....i was wondering how other do this. maybe using  DRUM MACHINE plugin
isnt the way to go?

i would love to start doing more stuff where the drums in a track trigger my
modular, or clock it.


thanks so much
