Yeah, I can't use the NR as a master unless I buy something that
produced MIDI and DIN sync from the NR Clock Out.  The mod would *have*
to be cheaper than that...

Your idea of having the Ext Rate In be a *divider* would be teets on the
duck's back!

I like to have everything (808, BZone, Fat Controller, Mobius, PSIM, 
EGs, etc) ticking away in synchronized alien machine beats, and it 
would be cool to use the Noise Ring as a modulator.  Maybe a switch 
that disables the VCO and the CLOCK OUT becomes a Clock In?

I, too, often use one clock to sync everything in the system. One 
solution is to use the Noise Ring as the "master" clock, but there 
obviously are situations in which it is preferable to have another 
source generate this signal.

IIRC in response to an earlier post on the proposed Clock In, Grant 
had indicated he would investigate this possibility, but I don't 
think he ever posted the results... perhaps he will weigh in now?

My original thought was to add a switch so that the EXT RATE CV IN 
becomes a Clock In. But your suggestion has given me an even better 
idea: could flipping this switch convert the CLOCK OUT to a Clock In 
*and* also allow the EXT RATE pot and EXT RATE IN to control a clock 
divider for the pulse signal arriving at the Clock In jack?

This would be *very* special.
