sequential switch

Given the existing STS modules, how would one patch a sequential switch?

Thanks.

You can cascade ACPR (Active Processor) modules. Yes the CV lets you
crossfade between control voltages but drive it with a square wave and
you have a well behaved switch. You'd need to gate them on one by one.
The old COM module was good for that. A current module with comparator
function is the divide by N. Disclaimer: I'm not 100% up to date on
what's current and what's not.

You could sort of do it with the discontinued ROU module. COMparator
and ROUter modules could be combined into useful things like that but
the ROU module used an analog switch chip which added some resistance
to the signal path. That was annoying and I think is why it was
discontinued.

Thanks very much. I thought/hoped it would involve the ACPR as I have several of them.
