I like to create patterns that have nothing to do with standard
sequencing or keyboard playing - so keep that in mind with this module
idea - it is nice to have modulation sources that are meant to be
controlled in real time as opposed to setting them and leaving the
patch... so on that note...
I'd love to see a module that could take an incoming signal and "skip"
a manually set number of peaks in order to derive new patterns or
waveforms.
I'll explain with an example... let's say you took an LFO with a
rectangular or pulse waveform and wanted to trigger an envelope with
it but skip every 3rd pulse. You'd be able to set the module to
somehow derive an irregular waveform from the regular pulse of the
input... and this could be manually set for however many peaks you'd
like to "skip".
.. and this could function with LFO rates or audio rates to process CV
or audio.
I don't know how this would technically work, but I hope the idea
makes sense. I'd imagine you could use a couple modules to come close
to this idea but wouldn't it have to be a digital control in order to
exactly specify the number of "skips" and then how could the waveform
be smoothed some type of slewing
hmmm.. would it be something like an envelope follower into a digital
device that reads the frequency and then applies a slew to the input
according to the manually set number of "skips"
