This is a joint Paul S./Old Crow development, using not 1 but 2 PIC
microprocessors. There
are mechanical issues to be resolved, but the circuit is in beta test this
month.

And, you can run audio into it. The outputs are "CMOS" levels, ie 0 to +5V
as driven
by a 74HC244 buffer. So there will be a volume drop as compared to
standard -5 to +5 audio.

This is the *plan*. However, I need thouse of you with Roland drum stuff
(303/808/505/606/blah blah)
to look in the manuals and see if Roland states what they expect CLOCK IN to
be. If is a
higher voltage, I'll have to buffer things differently.

Features/panel shots in about 10 days. As a teaser, it contains visual
indication means.

Paul S.
