I never actually tried this, but it can indeed be done by splitting the cable. I have thought of the same myself, and found some documents on the Philip Rees website which suggests it is possible and shows the necessary info to make a split cable yourself.
I will email these docs to your private mail address so as not to bother anyone else with 300k of attachments. If anybody else is interested, just let me know.
Btw, I solved my problems with a Korg KMS-30 - even better: 1 x sync-24 in, 1 x MIDI clock in, 1x tape sync in (master clock selectable between all 3 inputs), and 2 x sync-24 out, 2 x MIDI clock out, tape sync out. If you can find one cheap (I paid 50 euro for mine), buy it!

Hi,
Is it possible to split the TB-303/TR606 Sync 24 signal so it can drive two
devices simultaneously?
I've been using MIDI to drive a TR-606 via a Kenton Pro-2 MIDI-CV converter,
which has a Sync 24 output DIN socket in the back. This works fine, but now I
want to drive a TB-303 as well. But there is only one Sync 24 socket in the
back of the 606, switchable in/out, so it's not possible to "chain" the units
like you would with MIDI devices.
Short of buying another Kenton unit and linking it by MIDI to the first one
(so giving two Sync 24 outs, on one each Kenton) I can't see a way of doing
it - unless the Sync 24 signal can be split into two by means of a box with
one DIN in and two DIN outs. This would need to be purpose-made (unless
anyone knows if such a device is available) but it would be a cheaper than
another Kenton....
Any ideas??
Cheers,
Mark
