How to sync a Juno 60 arpeggio with stuff you've already got

So what you do is feed a short, loud sound into the Arpeggio Clock In of a Juno 60 (or 6, I assume) - and whenever the sound is played it will trigger the next note in the Juno's Arpeggiatorater buffer. Don't think it matters terribly what the sound is - I'm using a rimshot here - the key to the sound is that it's loud and short and bippy.

Course the best thing about this is being able to trigger the arpeggio irregularly, and also if you feed LONG sounds in then you get weird commodore 64 style smearings as the notes trigger too fast - which is quite good too.

All in all I can't believe I didn't try this already. I'm not that clever ysee - real credit goes to http://www.em411.com

You can do it also with a CD! Your music will be mono from say the right side - and your clock sound will be on the CD-s left side!

You need to make it loud around zero db.

For the sound that triggers the juno better to draw a small wave around 2o milisec long and you will just put this to all 16th in the seq.

It works. I still have somewhere the CD with the 16th qlock k k k k k k k ...sounds on the left and some of my older song on the right / the CD was burned to a live performance...

@gweisolos I believe that is the Elektron Machinedrum :)

what drum machine are you using there?

[NUTWAVE]

you can use a roland box called an MD-8 to control the juno 60 also. nice work!
