Feature Idea: Subharmonicon
Closed this issue · 12 comments
Been playing around with the code to try to make a subharmonicon applet, but i'm not experienced enough to get it running
I think it would be two apps
First app would:
- Take in a frequency into the CV1
- Spit out 2 harmonic frequencies based on user selected division on out1/out2
Second app would take in a clock and advance a sequence, but you would set how long each of 4+ gates would stay open for.
- Set clock division for each step
- Send out trigger on out3 for each step, send passthrough clock on out4
Here is how I'm picturing the UI:
Or if it's possible to double it up, have the polyrhythm have two sequences
In which the Out4 would do the second channel of rests
Reference to the subharmonicon's idea:
2 sequencers, 1 polyrhythm that can be applied to each step of the sequence or not
How mad am I to suggest this?
Very cool idea! The sequencer part sounds like something I would immediately enjoy...
To be clear, would the harmonic divider part deal with audio rate? or pitch CV?
On this - do we have any apps that can take a clock and click divide it, but each divider waits for previous divisions trigger before dividing
There's the standard Clock Div applet.
There's also Beni's stochastic ProbDiv applet.
Nothing quite like the Subharmonicon sequencer tho, this is a unique applet idea - a deliberate clock division sequencer.
I also need to figure out the math involved to convert a harmonic ratio into a V/Oct offset for the subharmonizer pitch applet.
It's going to be a great tool
This is an awesome idea! I need a second o_C so badly...
Did this idea ever make it past this suggestion?
Unfortunately not yet...
Sorry for sleeping on this one... after some discussion on Discord about using the O_C for (sub)harmonic series quantization, I'm now aware of some scales already present in the firmware that might help realize this app idea. I may try to tackle it after the big weekend...
Ayup - How are plans going for anything such as the above ;)
