It only does 2 things:

a) you put in a waveform and it squares it up, then outputs a 0 to +5V 
square waves that are a division of the input.

Input 1000Hz, the /2 = 500Hz, /3 = 333.3Hz, etc

The *main* use is to input a wave that is relatively slow (say 50Hz) and 
then get *multiple* 'trigger/gate' outputs
for EGs. Yon can then get notes VCF'd or VCA'd evey 'X' notes (say every 14 
notes). The CLK IN can be the GATE out
of a synth/MIDI-CV, this allows you to 'count notes' and trigger an event up 
to every 33 notes.

If you have Robert Rich's CD 'Electric Ladder', the first 3 cuts use the 
'730 original protype all over.

b) it ouputs a 8-step, rising sawtooth that is divided from either the input 
or the variable clock (/N). Can
feed a VCO for little apreggo runs, or whatever.

c) you can run up to 14KHz or so into it, you can make a cheesy Hammond 
organ by combining outputs (via MOTM-830)
into a VCF.
