xfade is for audio (AC coupled), the active processor is for DC control voltages. You could use xfade as an audio switcher, near the end of your signal chain, instead of using it for CV, and accomplish the same thing. Maybe you'd need twice the oscillators though. >The xfade adds

The other thing you can do to rotate a sequence is use the xfade. Take the 4 stages of A into one side of the fade, the 4 B into the second side. Run the clock into the pulse divider, take the output to control the xfade. Set the xfade all the way over to the second into and the

Your missing the point. there is no stopping "A" and starting"B"... they ALL run concurrently. You might be able to simulate the same effect by having whatever vca is responsible for the output of the voice that row A is driving to attenuate after the first pass of the sequence..

Hi, OK, lets say that row A outputs values a1, a2, a3, and a4 (a1, a2, a3 For hard sync, I suppose that any waveform that sees a sharp transient modulating its pitch would be forced to restart. Isn't this after all, the nature of synchronization? Now wonder why you can't sync sin

Re: Pulse, Sync, Sequencers and Shuffle

2004-04-30 by John Loffink

I tried this with a TKB, inverted NTO sawtooth (variable pulse out did not trigger TKB reliably), 1/2 DSG for reset and 1/2 DSG to slew the sequence output. (With 16 stages of TKB the DSG wasn't high enough frequency for good sync sounds.) It does work, but sounds a little rough.

Re: Pulse, Sync, Sequencers and Shuffle

2004-04-30 by John Loffink

That's true, if the sequence row out is fed to a DSG tracking 1 volt/octave you could get very close the sawtooth sync. I would use a PCO/NTO for the reset pulse. That's where you want the frequency accuracy. You can use a DSG/DTG for the clock input, but as it must be a multiple

Yes, cool, I was wondering about that. You can make a pseudo-saw (staircase) waveform with the sequencer... and if you run it thru a slew limiter, you can round things off a little. Another reset pulse source could be a DSG or DTG.... even the 'smooth' part of the SSG can be used

Re: Pulse, Sync, Sequencers and Shuffle

You could do hard sync by using a sequencer as the waveform generator. Feed PCO #1 into the sequencer clock at a multiple of the desired frequency, 5 x for a 5 step sequence, for instance. Use PCO #2 to reset the sequencer. Output of the sequencer row is your synced waveform. Thi
