the absolutely awful plugin suite

modules

common characteristics:

  • these plugins are awful, you are advised to avoid them at all costs
  • no user manuals, never ask for a user manual.
  • ugly interface because a) i am not able and b) i am not interested in user interfaces
  • totally, miserably, hopelessy free
  • all input and output ports are color-coded as in figure:

legend

**** 1.1.1 update **** i was really, really tired of the voltage level mismatch between the modules available. so, the output level of the sequencers changed again, now supporting a full range of -10V to +10V. this can be limited/shifted/transposed/whatever with two tiny knobs misleading labeled as "output range".

to add insult to injury, for the very first time in the world a plugin could have (or have not) some hidden features. and now for something completely different: a list.

a list.

klee

a rather complete klee sequencer, with some enhancements. more information: https://www.google.com/search?q=klee%20sequencer%20pdf

k/exp

if the complexity of a klee sequencer is not enough, use this expansion module.

m581

inspired by the system 100 sequencer, check https://www.google.com/search?q=m185%20step%20sequencer

renato

x/y sequencer, in memory of the great renato/04! vaguely inspired by https://www.google.com/search?q=renee%20sequencer

z8k

4 colors x 4 sequencers. matrix reloaded. expandable with other z8exp series modules hint: https://www.google.com/search?q=z8000%20sequencer

spiralone

hypnotic! based on https://www.google.com/search?q=cyclic%20sequencer

burst

will likely cause serious damage to your ears idea taken from: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ylnhftrhjnm

pwmclockgen

some sequencers have their gate outputs dependent from the clock pulse cycle. here is a clock generator with controllable pwm, and swingable, and remotable, and syncable with midi, and with a lot of outputs, and frankly quite ugly.

quantizer

voltages in scale

uncertain

unstable voltages recipe:

  • 1/2 doepfer a-149-1
  • 1/4 buchla 266e
  • 1/4 gauss sigma control shaken, not stirred.

att / amp

calm down your boiling voltages, or energize the cables. can be used as voltage generator too.

boole

there are 10 kind of people: those who can understand boolean logic, and the others. this is the very first plugin in the world with variable impedence inputs. when using high impedence mode, please use shielded cables for quieter operation.

xswitch

circuit breaker. now expanded with optional hold capabilities.

mplex

multiplexer, an extremely controllable one. obviously inspired by my wife.

dmplex

did you multiplex? ok, now please de/multiplex. this sentence also inspired by my sweetie.

counter

count clocks and bangs when it reaches 0.

midyquant

dedicated to the inventor of the short midi message. quantized midi output for heavy daw users.

nag nag nag

trigonometric noise, a sin () under control of some well-tempered voltages.

empty

a strategy to waste some rack space in a more productive way ;-)

ascii

why just taking notes if you could make them play?

flop

as stated before, the logic consequence of using these plugins is a flop.

qu4ttro

vaguely inspired by a popular ios app. or it was bach?

o88o

an arpeggiator that pretends to be a sequencer, or the other way around. the first pattern is just as empty as empty

volt

the plugin that alessandro volta always wanted to have, if he was interested in microtonal music instead of frogs.

dice

s & h noise generator

nordschleife

for the very first time in the world an analog matrix sequencer that is so complex it had to be put under CPU control. from basic, repetitive sequences to total kaos, and everything in between. it is so complex, that cannot be used without knowing that:

  1. numpad keys 0 1 2 3 / * - + can be used for data entry (when the safety car is deployed, every car shall follow)
  2. every car has is own path, direction and sequence range
  3. in case of collision between two cars, everything can change.
  4. not to mention the step-by-step options.

rr

clock round robin (with a switch)

chords

not only bleep bleeps. the chords

c2v

gate signals to voltages
