Colin hat noch son cooles demuxer ding f[r den din sync port gebastelt.
dadurch erhaelt man durch die din sync schnittstelle zusaetzliche 24 triggerausgaenge!
im beta forum hat er es sehr technisch erklaert, ich habe ihn ein paar fragen dazu gestellt, hier die antworten:
"> Could you explain the whole thing more easy?
I'll try...
The SYNC port can output DIN SYNC.
That allows you to slave a DIN SYNC equipped drum machine or sequencer, such
a Roland TB303, TR606, TR808, TR909, Korg KPR-77, etc.

DIN SYNC normally gives a 24ppqn clock.
I'll be adding support for divided clock rates, so it will be possible to
output a 1/16th clock (which you may see referred to as 4ppqn).

Yes. The SYNC port has a second function.
With a de-mux board attached, it can be used as a multi-channel analogue
drum trigger interface.
Each channel is a pair of outputs - an accent (velocity) CV and a trigger
pulse.
They can be used to trigger analogue percussion circuits.
These might be patched up on a modular synth, inside an analogue drum
machine with suitable trigger inputs, etc.
A multiplex is where multiple signals are sent over a single connection, but
are divided in regular units of time.
The de-muxer board turns the multiplex into multiple individual CV and
trigger outputs using the clock signals sent alongside the CV and trigger
signals.
It's a secondary analogue interface, aimed at triggering devices that don't
need high CV resolution.
Cheers,
Colin

voll geil auf alle fälle!
muss ich mir ne ordentliche stange drummodule besorgen
oder so alte simmons, oderwasweissich.... triggern halt
wer das analog board im cirklon hat, und das mit dem demuxer ding (wird mn sich wohl selber einbauen müssen) kommt,
hat man dann praktisch die 24 cv/gates vom CVIO und 24 trigger vom dinsync. dazu noch 5 x 16 midi in/out
...was will man mehr?
