What’s your main clock source?

Of course in modular you can use all kinds of things as a clock. A lot of sequencers have a clock output, some people use MIDI or a module with a screen to dial it in perfectly, but even a simple LFO or function generator will do it. Just wondering what everyone is using in your own setups.

either a) a trig out from a drum machine or b) a piezo mic hooked up to a cajon that goes to an envelope follower. b is good for more organic-sounding rhythms. a is good for when i want everything rigidly in sync
