[sdiy] MIDI commands to drive external clock steps..

[Tom Wiltshire]

I did a simple PIC firmware for this:

https://electricdruid.net/midi-clock-to-analog-gate-pulses/ <https://electricdruid.net/midi-clock-to-analog-gate-pulses/>

It turns MIDI Clock at 24ppqn into two different 0-5V clock outputs. You can set different divisions for the two outputs. It also provides "Start", "Stop" and "Running" outputs for sequencer control.
