syncing the A155's to midi clock is not a problem. it has to do with
the fact i don't want to play every part at once. i only have two
hands and ten fingers. if the Schaltwerk could do tied notes, then i
could use a channel to do basslines. next i could use a channel to
affect the cut-off on the filter for the bassline. use another
channel for some basic melody. next i use 4 channels to trigger
Analogue Solutions drum modules. i can save these patterns and
improvise with them. this leaves me with two hands to tweak the two
A155's in my A100 in realtime completely synced up as well as play
mono lines from my SH-101 cv and gate outputs connected to my A100
and use its onboard sequencer well. when the Schaltwerk can do tied
notes and hopefully slides, i will then get my SH-101 modded so i can
use it as a sound source triggered by the schaltwerk and use the
keyboard to trigger my A100 and or both if possible.

if the schaltwerk did tied notes i would only need it to do all of
the above. that is not the case, so i have to use another sequencer
top of that and a midi2cv box.just more room for error, not mention
more gear to lug around and more cables. there you go, so now you can
hopefully understand why i am adamant about that feature added to my
Schaltwerk, when it should been there in the first place. hopefully
all the discussion concerning the Schaltwerk will amount to
something. when it happens i will be able to ditch the other
sequencers and midi2cv box. i will be able to sequence my A100 and
other sources happily and not have to use a computer. there you go. i
am done the explaining the virtues having an upgrade done. i will
only comment on the Schaltwerk for ideas to the upgrade or to anyone
who has questions about using one.

peace out and may the upgrade come soon.
