Yes, as SJ said, you could fire an event at a particular step. You could
stick a pulse divider between a gate out and an EG so that it fires only
every OTHER loop, etc., too. You could even use an 8-stage seq as a Master
to fire 8 other sequencers in sequence...the amount of money you could spend
would make Hans Zimmer blush! ;-)

Or, as Dave said, the gates could be "internal" and put to a rotary switch.
Many sequencers go this route.

LH: Cool Ken. I never would have thought about that.
It would almost seem like a waste of a good full featured
VCO. So, a basic VCO built in for VC clock might be
a good idea.

OK. That makes sense. But, it bring up another question.
Other than controlling the number of steps, why do I want
or need individual gate outs?

Thanks,
