That being said. it's not a gate sequencer you need to build. you need to build the CV version of the sequencer.
But you'll need to add other electronics too.. i would guess perhaps you could use a vactrol to make things really easy.. but it wont respond very well at super fast speeds.

So you could use a VCA instead and have the 4017 sequencer simply control the VCA's CV input. Probably your best option.
hmm... That gives me an idea for a module.

Anyway, I've been plundering the Nicholas Colin Handmade Electronic music book (awesome btw, if you don't own it, get it.. like now) Anyway, I've been trying to work on a 4017 based gate volume sequencer thingy. I've been playing around to now avail, I can get a nice 8-step LED chain going, but and a bit stumped as to how to get the on/off signals to my volume pots. Can anyone offer this electronics noobie a hand?

Here is a working example of what I'm aiming for (though my messages to the author have gone unanswered)

Thanks for any help!
