Alot of my clock modules are controlled by Binary Numbers, so I've been looking at differant counters to build a flexiable divider module to control them, especially the BugBrand Presets module.
This one is built from a 4526 Proggramable 4 Bit Down counter. It has 4 outputs for 4 differant divisions & what makes it rather usefull for pattern generating is it has 4 switches which change the pulse trains at the outputs in differant ways.
In this video a random voltage is being used to reset the counter & I switch various patterns in & out. On the right a CGS Psycho LFO is being used to control the distorted 8008 sound. The LFO feeds a 2 Bit analogue to digital convertor & one of the bit outs controls a gate controlled switch, so, when the Psycho LFO outputs more than 5V a clock from the Binary Counter is tapped off into the trigger input of the drum module.
Thanks you guys! Means alot. This is such a random "hhmmm wonder if this thing work" type of jam. Can't wait to get stuff organanzized & do something 'proper'
Until then... MORE BLINKEN!!!!!!!
