still wrapping my mind around the incredible depth of this device, i have a novice question – possibly very simple:
i’d like to track a V/oct signal and create (short) pulses whenever this signal changes (eg. by one note » 1/12th volt). any walkthrough as for how to achieve this?
This is actually not that easy!! It’s known as a slope detector, i.e. it outputs a gate/trigger on a voltage change…
This is not implemented as a Unit, I think all the components are there to make it work in the ER-301, but I really need to do it and check because it will probably require quite a lot of units!
Almost there… but something not quite right, lets see if anyone can spot where it’s going wrong… I know the answer, but can’t think of a way to resolve it
This should cancel the signals out except where there is a change in pitch, i.e. the alternating S&H triggers allow for a time difference and therefore a signal output when the difference is there!
here is where the missing bit is what is required? *
Mixer channels 1 & 2 out > to a sample player with a pulse and the threshold to trigger from the output of everything above and you’re there…
I wish the missing bit was there as this would make a very nice patch
I am being slightly mean, I’ll give you a clue, it only works when changing from a lower to a higher voltage!
Of course… a major part of the fun with the ER-301 is that you don’t need $$$ of modules to try things out, I’m having a ball and loving every update that expands the possibilities!!
