Hey,
I was looking at the Mikado sequencer and wondering
about how the quantizer operates.
Ok, ascii art time. Here is an octave, in semitones:
C C# D D# E F F# G G# A A# B
-------------------------------------
| 0| 1| 2| 3| 4| 5| 6| 7| 8| 9|10|11|
-------------------------------------
The numbers are input voltage in 1/12 of a volt, and
the letters are the note outputted for that voltage.
My question is: how does the quantization occur?
This is my guess for major scale quan:
C C D D E F F G G A A B
-------------------------------------
| 0| 1| 2| 3| 4| 5| 6| 7| 8| 9|10|11|
-------------------------------------
And major chord quan would be:
C C C C E E E G G G G G
-------------------------------------
| 0| 1| 2| 3| 4| 5| 6| 7| 8| 9|10|11|
-------------------------------------
In other words, for 0/12V to 3/12V, a 'C' is
outputted. For 4/12 to 6/12V an 'E' is put out. And
for 7/12 to 11/12V a 'G' is put out.
Am I on the right track here?
Thanks in advance.
