Hello David.

You are speaking my language. 

Let's back up a bit.  You said that the S+H is being triggered in time with the original sequence.  In this case, the original sequence basically becomes unnecessary as for each step in the sequence, another voltage is added.  You are correct that the result should never repeat (at least it is highly unlikely) but it is also hardly any relation to the original random-ordered note pattern.  If you reduced the S+H clock to something more like 1 bar, then you would have more of a transposing effect applied to the original random sequence, but I assume this is not the effect you were after.  What type of pattern exactly are you trying to generate  As it is now, your mixed quantized output wouldn't be noticeably different from a more simple 118->148->156 output (unless directly comparing the two in realtime, of course).   What sequencer is creating the initial random pattern

Hi,

I'm trying to create a randomised sequence. I have an analog sequence of volta going into a quantiser via an A138 Lin. In another channel of the 138 I have a S&H voltage. The S&H is derived from an A148 clocked by the same trigger as the sequence and with the sample being Random control from an A118. I expected that the random S&H voltage would "push" the sequenced notes slightly - so the sequence would be related to the original but never the same. What I get is the sequence or the random - whatever settings I use in the mixer.

So what have I got wrong / not understood

David
