Re: [Doepfer_a100] Create shuffled rhythms within A-100

2014-11-12 by Florian Anwander

Hello Nick

Great blog post!

When I read your post, another method to create a shuffled clock came to 
my mind:

Any LFO -> A-162(1) Trigger Delay -> A-165 Trigger Modifier +/-Out -> 
A-162(2) Trigger Delay (or A-142-1)

Or

Any LFO -> A-142-1 Voltage Controlled Decay/Gate -> A-165 Trigger 
Modifier +/-Out -> A-162(2) Trigger Delay (or A-142-1)

Or

LFO with variable Pulsewidth -> A-165 Trigger Modifier +/-Out -> A-162 
Trigger Delay (or A-142-1)



All these methods have in common: The first trigger delay (or the 
VC-Gate) creates a controllable pulse length for the LFO - it should be 
more than 50%. This non-symmetrical pulse is converted into two spikes 
by the Trigger Modifier. The second Trigger Delay creates the two 
triggers wich are used for the sequencer steps (and eventually as gate 
for the envelopes).





And btw, you are asking in your post:
 > Perhaps ratios <50% are techincally known by another name?
Yes there is a name for. It is called "stumbling" ;-)
To be honest: shuffle / swing ratios less than 50% are not interesting 
from the musical point of view.
