Apart from being a normal clock divider, the rotate function allows you to generate complex “polyrhythms”. I put that in quotes, since it’s not polyrhythms in the classical synth sense, ie multiple rhythmic voices with different sequence lengths. Rather, the rhythm becomes a series of N pulses at X clock rate, followed by M pulses at Y clock rate etc. Depending on how you trigger the rotation, the sequence might not repeat for a very long time. I’ve found an excellent example here:

Also, it tracks accurately up to a few kHz, so you could even use it to make pulse wave chords.
