Hello Dieter... the A-155 would do part of what I want, defining
pulses to be skipped, but I wanted to deal with audio as well. I
just realized that I might be able to "skip" LFO pulses and audio
frequency pulses with the A-151 switch since it can handle fast VCO
rates. So it looks like what I want already exists in a way.
thanks,
Bryan K.
