When using sync the internal programming of 303202 is disabled, just delink to use the programming; pitch and pattern change can be used. Then plug back in and reset.

Different time signatures In 3/4 12 step

2/4 = 3*2 = 6 steps, one pattern

3/4 = 3*3 = 9 steps

4/4 = 3*4 = 12 steps

5/4 = 3*5 = 15 steps, two chained

6/4 = 3*6 = 18 steps etc

 Tsig 4/4 16 step mode

4*2=8

4*3=12

4*4=16 one pattern

4*5=20 two-pattern chain

4*6 =24

4*7=28

4*8=32 etc

This is probably why nobody bought the 303 back in 1982 if anybody can program the box for different step and tsig please send me a demo. The next stage now is to combine the workings above into the various tsigs as the 303 is programmable in only 12 and 16 step

Mode combinations of 12 step and 16 step create different tsig e.g. 7/4 dub beats in 12 step is 4/4+3/4 = 12 +9 = 21 step

7/4 in 16 step is 4/4+3/4 = 12 +16 = 28 step
