I'm writing this, because Cybertracker is the best C64-music editor
I've tried and I'm totally in love with it. But there's only one thing
missing...

For DIN-sync (or Sync24) you'll need to recieve 24 pulses for quarter
note, so I think it'll be 6 pulses for one trackerline. If pulses
would affect on ticks then the sync would be more versatile and
instruments would also be syncable. If pulses replace ticks it would
work at least with speed set as 6 and that should do it.
Prophet64 receives pulses from userport, but I guess that joystick
port could be used -just pick one pin for run/stop-signal (on/off) and
other port for pulses (clock).
Din sync signal is 5 volts, same as standard user port and joyport
signals so connector would be really easy to build.
User port connectors seems to be little hard to get, so I would
recommend joyport since 9-pin DSUB-connectors are available everywhere
-and you could also use joystick to run patterns! Track'n'field...
So how big job it would be to make a syncable version? Just sync
added, nothing more. And..

How much for adding the din-sync in? I could start raising funds for
this, 'cause I can't be the only one who needs it, right?
I can help on the developement in every ways I can, I can start
studying programming if thats needed, whatever it takes.
Who's with me?
