Switches, Muxers, S&H, T&H
The Track & Hold is best explained with an example.
Three ways to distribute the random signal to the pitch input of an OSC:
1) by switching: switching to off results in a pitch input value of 0.
2) Track&Hold: switching to off = pitch input value is the last value received from the random module.
3) Sample&Hold: each opening of the switch lets the last sampled value of the random module through.

The suboctave divider is probably not so basic to understand, but yet very basic. You hear the original wave on the left output, one octave lower on the right output.
Here's the explanation:
"The output of the S&H is routed to the input of a Logic Inverter module from the Logic tab and the output of the Inverter is routed back to the input of the S&H. Every time the oscillators wave crosses zero in the positive direction the output of the S&H is flipped between either 0 units or 64 units. This effectively creates the suboctave squarewave."
