4ms Shuffling Clock Multiplier demo (beta version)

The Shuffling Clock Multiplier from 4ms is the speedy cousin of the Rotating Clock Divider. The SCM has inputs for CV Rotate and CV Shuffle, which are connected in this video to the X and Y outputs of a joystick controller. In normal mode, the SCM outputs 8 clock signals that are exactly 1-8 times faster than the clock input (which is coming from a tap tempo module in this video).

The CV Shuffle drops beats out, dropping more pulses as more CV is applied. So at 0V there are no beats dropped, e.g. on the x8 jack there's a steady 1/8 note pulse. At 1V some notes drop out, e.g. we may get three 1/8 notes followed by two rests and then three more 1/8 notes, and this pattern repeats each measure. At maximum CV input we get only the down beat (first note of the measure)

The CV Rotate works like it does on the RCD (applying a CV routes the clock outputs to different jacks).

The sounds are created by an Andromeda mk 2 snare module (www.ericarcher.net), an EH Space Drum, and two little bass drum modules (by Jeannot Q)
More to come!!
