Sync24 as input

Design Concepts
1

Hello

I know the possibilitie to sync24 an external device, thanks to Pin D.4 (see clockbox)

Now i wonder if it’s possible to use that same pin to sync from sync24 (or a gameboy :wink: ).

I guess it’s not possible to read from a DIN (because of the debouncing)

How to use Pin D.4 (J14) for reading then ?

Maybe using J5 as digital input is a better idea ?

Anyone did that allready ?

Do i ask for too much questions ?

Thanks !!

You could probably sample a pin with a timer, but I can’t help but wonder why you would want to do a thing like that?

I want to use Sync24 (or equivalent) as Mastersync.

I want try to do a MIOS slave sequencer. It’s for live act.

Admit that i just want a fat rythm over my gameboy, i think it’s more logical and more interesting to give the greyboy the MASTER control over the midi beatbox. (the gb sequence the tempo !!)

I see what you mean now. I know you love your gameboy tunes, and if it’s your primary instrument, then it makes sense to have it as the master.

Take a look at the top of seq_bpm.inc in the MBSEQ source code, I think TK explains it best :wink:
