The TR606 has switchable in/out sync so you're ok there. I think the mc202 has both in and out ports seperately (I'm not sure as I've never owned one) so you can connect the Pro-2 to the 202 to the 606 and get that syncing feeling. * arp clock out. Sends a trigger output for controlling arpeggiators on synths, or sequencers like on the SH101. I've had trouble with this using the 101, as it wants to see a +5 volt spike and the Pro-2 doesn't quite put out like it should. Yet it works fine with my mono/poly's arpeggiator. I've come up with a work-around so if you get it email me for details as I won't waste AH bandwidth with it. * midi in and thru * s-trigger outputs on both channels so you can control moog equipment as well for each synth it has: * has control voltage and gate outs (1 volt/oct cv...Hz/volt optional but you don't need it for the stuff you named) * two auxilliary cv outs, for controlling various other synth functions (assuming your synth has cv inputs for other things. For example, I can control filter cutoff and portamento on/off with my mono/poly, whereas my SH-101 has no extra inputs so I can't control anything other than notes) * you can assign a number of different midi controllers to these aux outs > >where exactly can you buy or order it, do you have any idea? > >thanx, > >gabriel.
