there are already suffient software arps, and I think a couple of them are free. It might be better to build a hardware arp from scratch than try to add a clock circuit to the Akai, but the reason for hacking an existing machine is because it would be way cheaper. Probably more difficult, but cheaper... Why didn't Mike just make a new synth rather than the Hawk kit for the Poly? The answers to that question are the same as they would be for hacking the Akai arp...
