There are two possibilities:
1.) The digital one needs "simple" mathematics:
You need the lowest common denominator of both clock rates as master-clock
and have to divide this master clock down to the needed individuall values.

Example: you want a 8 step versus 7 step sequence with tempo 120. The
lowest common denominator of 7 and 8 is 56. So you need a clock which runs
with 56 beats per bar.

2.) The "analogue" version uses a phase locked loop (PLL - yeah! again this
funny module): One sequence is running clocked by any wished clock, the
other sequence is clocked by the oscillator of the PLL. The PLL compares
the reset signals of the sequencer counters; if there is a difference it
speeds down or speeds up the frequency of the oscillator. Of course this
will take some time, lets say 20 to 30 cycles.

Kind regards, Florian

PS: You see, why I'd like to have a PLL-Module ;-)
