I forget... Are there some extra (digital) inputs that could be used
to change the mode on the fly? That would be useful with any clock.
Likewise for a reset-to-step-1 input.

If using a programmable clock such as a PSIM, the clock could exert
additional control via the mode inputs -- switching between up and
down modes every 'N' beats, for example.

I suppose this kind of thing could be handled via the MIDI interface,
but we like voltage control, right? :-)
