Phase plant to sketch quick, grid to build it proper. VCV to save me from spending $20k!

Omri, have you seen Unreal Engine Metasounds? It is not as mature as the Grid, or the VCV Rack, but has got some interesting capacity in it. Your opinion is much appreciated.

In the past the way it seemed to me was that the Key Filter would be upset if I didn't at least feed it legit notes. If I sent it weird unofficial pitches, it didn't know how to deal with them. I dealt with that by running everything through a pitch quantizer in the grid that would ensure I was at least generating recognized notes, and then that would go into the Key Filter, and it would know what to do.

That seems to work also!

Great vid as always! Instead of modulating the pitch output, You can use sample and hold module between the pitch scaler and the pitch output and trigger it with the gate signal. Thanks man!

Thanks! Using a S&H doesn't work for me. The Key Filter still doesn't quantize anything...

This is freaking great. Can we have more complex offshoots of this idea in future videos? Like how far can we control this or push it, what about pushing further and then how would you map it to the meta controls? Great job Omri

The LFOs in Bitwig have their own stereoization control by applying different phase offset to the right channel. It's located at the bottom left corner.

great stuff as usual, I often forget the specifics or polyrhythms vs. polymeters, so the idea of distinguishing between from if they sync up on step 1 is clever. I didn't quite get what's the difference between using transport and counter for this?
@TheBitwigMyceliumАй бұрын
Thanks! The Transport is an easy way of getting polymeters, but you cannot modulate it or control it externally without having to change the sequence length. On the other hand, when using the Counter, you can set a longer sequence, and just modulate the counter to change the sequence length.

What's the reason for putting the phase counter in front of the 5 and 7 step gate modules? If you didn't, wouldn't it still cycle at the same rate?
@crossmodАй бұрын
Without phase counter: 5 and 7 steps played in the space of one bar. Quintuplets and septuplets. When played together this gives you a five over seven polyrhythm. With phase counter: 5 and 7 steps played as sixteenth notes. The five note pattern is five 16ths and the seven is seven 16ths. This gives you a five over seven polymeter. The patterns overlap and don't repeat at the bar line.
@MrMarcLaflammeАй бұрын
@@crossmod ah okay I follow now, the speed of the steps doesn’t visibly change that much so it was hard to see if it did anything.
@TheBitwigMyceliumАй бұрын
Hi! Yeah, by default, the length of the sequencer doesn't really dictate the sequence length, but rather the length of the notes like quarter notes, 8th notes, 16th notes, etc. This means that having a length of 5 and 7 will actually mean having the same length, just with septuplets (7th notes) and quintuplets (5th notes). For changing the actual length of the sequence, there's a need to use either the counter or this will work with the transport module as well. I hope to have a video on this topic soon.

Thanks for this! I was actually playing around with this exact idea last week (inspired by Monorail Tech Talk at kzbin.info/www/bejne/poTdfn93qZupe6c). But there is one problem I haven't figured out how to solve yet. How do you fix (or hide) that the shift register starts out empty upon transport start/reset? If I'm aiming for a four-note chord, for example, it will take four triggers before the shift register is fully initialized and it actually plays a four-note chord. Before that, I get a one-note, two-note, and three-note chord before the patch settles into the intended sequence of four-note chords.
@crossmodАй бұрын
I would mute the song until the register is filled.
