Subject: MIDI clock adders? (was: Re: OT: Akai arpeggiator

hmm I have several mergers but never thought of using them that way. Theoretically it should work but I've never seen it mentioned in any manuals as an option. I've got a three-processor merger with midi filtering, so I could conceivably merge two different sequences at any tempo to one MIDI out, and control the tempo to both of them by merging a third channel of nothing but clock data?
