KR-55 - invert the clock out? (Re: [AH] 1977 Electro)

[david lacey]

"We have some synths... Nobody move. Everything will be okay. If you try to
make any moves, you'll endanger yourself and the synth. Just stay quiet."

Our spooks have not fully explored the Al-Qaeda/EBM connection.  Such an
investigation is not desired by the Atari corporation.

On a possibly related note: What would be the easiest way to invert the
clock output of a KR-55?  In the past I've used the voltage processor on a
2600 to invert and shift the output for regular/roland sequencer stepping.
I'm wondering if anybody know of a place to pull that clock from internally,
or has a recommendation on a simple to implement internal inverter so I can
just have a + clock out of the thing?

I suggest build a box like Paul Crowther of Hot Cake made for me as  
prototype--a simple pulse shaper
It was operated by a 9V battery -no messy powersupply
-the input jack can be a signal from tape/DAW, drum machine indiv  
voice output---it must be a sensible input like a high hat etc , or  
actual clock or gate out from machine
The output has a postive jack or negative jack
I have suggested to Paul that Hot Cake brand should make them --Pauls  
contact details are
crowth@...

cheers David

I just got a box from these guys that does the trick for my recently
acquired KR55. Very fast shipping too:

Sweet!  I'll get two TC-1s and one of the TC-2 S to V versions as well and
introduce the CSQ to the micromoog.  That introduction is long overdue.  I'm
tempted by the passive DIN splitter too, but I should really be able to
manage that myself!

N.: can't wait either, the Futility will be palpable!

Still not as good as Paul's pulse shaper he built for me
