By patching up a network with the SOU, and a few 281 Function Generator sections, you can get some pulses that are at least unpredictable, if not truly random. A tip: if you set the quantized random section to two steps and clock it with something, you get a random pulse train out, albeit still in sync with the input pulse train. This output will trigger other 281e sections, and I assume it's sharp enough to trigger other things. > I understand Chris Muir has the Pendulum Rachet, but it is my > understanding that it wont go too random???? The Pendulum/Ratchet was designed to generate correlated pulses, so generating random pulses is not it's strong suit. That said, the four cv input jacks on the Pendulum/Ratchet are designed to be a shorting bar away from jacks on the SOU: Fluctuating Random A -> Rate Fluctuating Random B -> Density modulation Quantized Random C -> Division A Stored Random F -> Division B It still generates correlated pulses, but sometimes the correlation can be hard to hear. - C Chris Muir cbm@well.com http://www.xfade.com
