    hi,

    my name is greg. i just joined because i have begun using the serge
    at san francisco city college and have tons of questions. one for now:

    when using the tkb, is there any simpler way to sequence rests
    (triggering only select steps) than to stack all of the desired step
    outs into the envelope generator? triggering the envelope from the
    clock source (cycling dtg) obviously gives me a note on every step.
    how do other people do this? is it common just to use an external
    clock source which steps the sequencer to the desired rhythm, rather
    than constantly?

    ok, try this:

    set up a nice 8 step sequence, triggering it off the DTG as you describe. you will have a steady rhythm with a note at every step. feed output D from the tkb to the CV input of the DTG and apply a little CV offset pos or neg. depending on the voltages set on line D, the DTG will either speed up or down at that step and then move onto the next one, speed up, etc. so, to set up a simple 4/4 with note-rest-note-note, set up a 3 (yes) step sequence with a touch of voltage from step 1 row D (causing DTG to hold) and none on D for 2 and 3. adjust according. you can also try this type of thing with the "hold" input on the tkb and a clock divider.

    good luck, hope this helps,

    blake, your moderator.

    thanks a lot,

    greg
