Doepfer

the layout Florian Suggests seems great to me.

(the only thing is that you would have to remember what divisions are the Clock I and Clock II outputs, as these are set by jumpers. but you can't have everything.)

Simply name them "Clock I" and "Clock II".

Here my suggestion:

Left row:
* start/stop gate-out
* start trigger-out
* stop trigger-out
* reset trigger-out
* Measure 1-out

Right row:
* start/stop button (synchro-start function)
* start/stop trigger-In (synchro-start function)
* clock 96-out
* clock I-out
* clock II-out

The division factor for Clock I and II can be set by jumpers.

It would be great to have some of the signals on a 10 pin pinhead 
connector on the pcb (Start/Stop, reset, 96th, 16th, measure-1). One 
could use it as an internal bus for additional modules like downward 
counters/dividers (also for uneven divisions), which again could serve 
as address counters for trigger sequencers....

(I started think about something like that some time ago, but did not 
get on with it...
