Re: Newbie TKB questions

Yes, the combined ABCD. You patch it wherever you want your 64 step sequenced voltage to go.Yep, it runs through A, B, C, then D.

Last question for at least 48 hours I swear....
I'm away from my Serge for the rest of the night so I have to wait until the morning to work on the 64 step sequence.
I'm assuming you're talking about the combined ABCD. Where should I patch this & are the separate A,B,C,D still functional here? I'm guessing that the 64 step patch runs through A then B then C then D.

Thanks!
