I am also interested in this post as I have the cherry modular system and would love to figure a way to send triggers between it and the scope modular.

pulsar only thru-pipe?
audio?
midi?

## the specifications are needed
set source-links to find more system-details
.....
scope sync
midi timecode
midi clock
sync
transport link
vst link
rewire
sample clock
gate trigger to midi
...
..

From what I can tell, seq24 can only be clock master on Windows. On Debian, i can have it run with jack's clock and transport, but i see no such option on the version i installed for Windows. So, to set Seq24 as master, go to Menu > File > Options and set a Scope MIDI port to output clock to: enable the "On (mod)" for the Scope MIDI device number of your choice. The "On (pos)" sends MTC afaik, clock with song position pointer, and I doubt VCV will be able to use that.

For vcvrack i don't find a version that i can install on XP, so couldn't try. If you have it running, see if it can slave to midi clock, then select a Scope MIDI port for clock source.

Then in Scope OS, connect the Sequencer MIDI Source set in seq24 to the Sequencer MIDI Dest set in VCVrack. Press play in seq24 and your VCV should be clock sync'd.

PS: On debian, i use seq64 instead of seq24. It is a continuation from seq24, but has much more features. Again, I don't find an installer for seq64 for XP. Worth a try on Win7 and beyond though, IMO.

If only for triggers, I'd use MIDI, which is pretty standard. Not sure how cherry modular goes about its audio IO and CV, but yea why not send modulation signals over ASIO back and forth between Scope modular and cherry modular, if the latter supports CV via audio ports.
