Rhythmic Variations:

Summary: 

Any two different clock signals or gate/trigger patterns can 

be connected to one of the logic gates for interesting rhythmic outputs. 
Experiment with different clock rates and logic gates. Take advantage 
of the internal normalling and use three clock signals or gate/trigger 
patterns instead of two.

Clock Signal 1

AND Output

NAND Output

OR Output

NOR Output

XOR Output

XNOR Output

NOT Output

Clock Signal 3

Clock Signal 2
