Patch: Syncopated clock with random probability

Patch: Syncopated clock with random probability

2003-05-04 by John Loffink

Another application for the lowly MOTM 700.  This gives a nice
syncopated, semi-random clock, but always on the beat.

Required Modules:
100 or 101 Noise/S&H
320 VCLFO or 390 uLFO
700 VC Router
830 Dual Mode Mixer
910 Cascaded Multiple

Connections
320 PULSE or 390 SQR to Mult
Mult to 100/101 EXT CLK, 830 IN 3, 700 IO A
100/101 S&H OUT to 830 IN 2
830 OUT1 to 700 CV IN (A/B/X)
700 IO X is syncopated clock, send to ADSR gates

Settings:
100 LEVEL = 10, SLEW = 0
320 or 390 RATE = about 8
700 SWITCH = +0.5 to +3.5
830 IN 2, IN 3, BIAS (optional) = set to taste

This is really cool, John.  Look for a demo of, er, something driven 
by this.  Soon.

hello all,

i only just got out of bed (8am on a sunday !?!?!?)
but later this morning i can rig up a dual version of this patch with a CGS
twin t drum module
there's some percussion i need on a track - let's see how it works...

cheers

well done john loffink !

i just tried it out with two patches running simultaneously - one clocking
at half the speed of the other
at high speed - great for percussion (in my case a pair of ken stone's twin
t drum modules), and at low speeds, great for fills (midwest analog adv
snare & adv bass)
definitley my new secret weapon to hide my crap drum programming...
...AND remember those mono-tone bass sequences from early 80s cabaret
voltaire albums..? (i'm thinking crackdown & microphonies here)
yep - i'm gonna try that next ! (i can imagine this will excite only a very
small section of the list - if any...)
