Octagon Divisions with External Clock

Post by rsover »

Octagon sequencer Divisions seems to not work when sequencer is connected to an external sync. When connected to external, the divisions are 1/1.
Using internal clock they work as expected.
Is this a bug or expected behaviour?
Attached a patch to demonstrate.

I am relatively new to VM and wanted to look at this as my first attempt at using Octagon. I tried it with an LFO as an external clock source, not the Sync Divider. I got similar results as you. The 4 repetitions at step 2 sync to the external clock and do not respect the DIV setting (i.e., they are not sped up to fit within the beat).

Per the documentation: "Note: The Division function is disabled when using an external clock source (because external clock pulses happen once per sequence pulse or step and can't be "multiplied.""
