Subject: Thoughts on gate & trigger processing modules

From: The Old Crow <oldcrow@...

Being a sequencer fanatic, it is only natural that I tend to pay
attention to ways to create gates and triggers. I'm already tinkering
with dividing pulses, but was interested in what folks thought about...

...a pre-loadable gate/trig shift register with cascadable input and
output, as well as a voltage-controlled shifter clock with initial rate
knob. Switches select the desired pre-loaded register states; LEDs show
the current output states. Not a complete analog sequencer chain, but
quite good at complex trigger chains.

...a N/M rate multipler. Using a fast PLL, should be able to settle
within one or two input cycles. Would provide elusive rates like 5/3, etc
with each output pulse evenly spaced. Could probably voltage-control N
and M.
