To add to what Michael suggested checking…
You’re right that the A8 trigger/gate input is strictly a trigger/gate input.
Can you lay out for us all the involved NerdSEQ output -> A8 input connections, their mappings inside the A8, and the base values set in the A8 for the things being modulated by those mapped inputs? (which can be interesting not least because some of those things map as offsets but some map as scaling. Addition/subtraction vs multiplication, to put it plainly.)
