Thanks for all the useful suggestions, folks. I'd started looking at the
149-1 and figured it might be a major player in such patches. This has
confirmed it for me. It also looks like I'll be getting a S&H and VCLFO,
to augment my 118 and 145. I don't know whether I can afford the rack
space or moolah to run to a 155 just yet. Maybe I'll see what I can get
happening just with a 160, 161 and 166.

Thanks again for the advice,
Alan

individual outs from the 149-2 going into the individual cv inputs of
the lower row of steps on the 155 sequencer. then you clock the upper
section of the 149-1 with a slow trigger from a clock divider, thus each
sequencer cycle or x number of cycles the sequence itself will change
semi-randomly. it can be a little tricky to tune in a sequence on the
155, since the lower row was intended for cv modulation of steps, not
note generation (and the outs from the 149-2 only generate on/off cv
signals), but the whole point of modular synthesis is the ability to
utterly disregard what something is "intended to do" ;-)
