4ms Shuffling Clock Multiplier breakout panel demonstration

Demo of the breakout panel for the Shuffling Clock Multiplier from 4ms. The SCM is at the center of things, clocking an ADSR envelope, a resonating LPF, an RCD, and a Dual Timbral Gate.

There's two audio paths in this patch: 1) a sine wave from a A-105 is being triggered by the Shuffled x8 output of the SCM, and 2) an Anti-Oscillator is running into an Atoner, which is modulating the pitch with an ADSR envelope. The ADSR is being triggered/gated by the x2 output of the SCM. This envelope also is controlling a second A-105 LPF for some resonant filter sounds. Finally, the Atoner/Anti-osc sound is being gated by a Model 13 Dual Timbral Gate via the non-shuffled x8 jack of the SCM.

First I demo the Slip feature, showing how the shuffled beats can be pushed forward in time by a varying degree. Every other beat is being shuffled. The amount is relative to the clock speed, so with the knob at 50%, the shuffled beat lands half-way between where it should be and where the next beat is. This is also CV controllable.

Then I show the Shuffle feature, which chooses which beats are shuffled. I show a few of the possibilities and then settle on shuffling every 4th beat. This too is CV controllable

Pulse Width goes from brief triggers (1.5ms high) to long gates (always high, except for 1.5ms low). This too is CV controllable and is relative to the clock tempo (i.e. a 50% gate will always be 50% no matter what tempo you set)

The Rate Switches can double, quadruple, and 8-tuple the rate, like the range jumpers on the RCD. These are CV gate-able, so at the end I show how an RCD clocked to the same master clock can quadruple the speed on the second half of each measure.

There's Rotate CV, just like on the RCD.... this lets you get all the odd divisions etc...

Finally, I didn't show the Skip CV feature. This drops out certain beats of the 8-bar phrase. Also there's a re-sync jack which resets and syncs the shuffling/skipping/slipping to a secondary pulse.

@drumsdrumdrumdrum The early Atoners were red. It goes Anti-Osc->Atoner->Model 13 to get that 'throaty' sound. Since making this video, I also love running the Atoner into a Borg filter

I thought the Atoner was pink!? Is the Atoner what makes the sound 'throaty'?

[danngreen1]

@drumsdrumdrumdrum It's the Atoner

[drumsdrumdrumdrum]

What is the red OSC? That thing is throaty!

that is the cuddliest monster ever ! ! ! :-D
