the way i imagined monostable circuit is with a lever and then its easier to convert permanent power into a pulse

[@bdmayhem3391]

I tend to make zero edge monostable circuits. When you press the button, absolutely nothing happens

[@badasson8825]

Create mod has made the most common circuits (per example pulse extenders, monostable and flip-flops) into special repeater-like components and it's such a game changer for me. Sometimes the new observer centric modern redstone is just too much for me, having these condensed components makes it so much more intuitive, specially if you're making space efficient circuits

[@jazziiRed]

I can definitely see that perspective. Create mod might actually be an interesting thing to explore in a future vid

This video has reminded me how long it's been since I tried to learn redstone last: it was 1.3 or 1.4 and that "truly ancient" monostable circuit was all we had for single-tick pulses and T flip flops! Amazing how much they've added since then (thank you 1.5)

[@AnnnaKathryn]

The way you presented this reminds me a lot of 3blue1brown, which is a huge compliment!! Awesome stuff man

[@themovercell2318]

I never heard the dual edge term before! Observers detected the redstone, but they do all block updates, like when water is in front of them, when logs are pushed onto leaves connected to them, and much more! Also, the sculk telegraph is new to me, and I never built one of those before! There is one design of rising edge you did not cover in the video that is well-known, and your explanation of monostable circuits was pretty cool! I did not know they were called monostable circuits!

[@thegamerdude9118]

I actually used one of the designs to make a combination lock. If you take the kind that you see in the thumbnail and put them one after the other, whatever input you make will be the next number in a sequence of binary. Some messing around, and I was able to take that concept and make a fully functional combination lock

[@abercrombieblovs2042]

How did the whole mechanism work? Could you explain it further?

[@davidkahalewai1530]

​​@@abercrombieblovs2042probably using the monostable inputs to turn on or off (binary) switches which then form a circuit to power on (or off depending which way you decided) a lock

Whit the right conversion library you should be able to program in LD and translate that to redstone. For those who don't know, LD is Lader Lenguage, the programming language for PLCs. The machines that control other machines in a factory.

This was very helpful because I was trying to make a pitfall trap but pressure plates take way to long to deactivate (it was a pitfall trap with signs and pistons and the fall only happens when the piston is deactivated) but with this it’s pretty much an instant pitfall (another thing is that I could have made a pitfall using observers but I was going to make this trap in an event where the nether is locked so sadly observers and comparators are out of the question)

[@inkmaze]

I don't even know what I did Called dual edge monostable This video is so useful new subscriber

[@TyphoonBeam]

I came into this video thinking I already knew about monostable circuits. I still use the piston one.

[@SnyperMK2000JclL]

Where have you been all my years of olaying MC and strugglebussing so damn hard with understanding redstone that i gave up and just copied others designs via tutorials because i couldnt get my head around it... I understand so much more of what Mumbo and company talk about now xD

[@thomasdewierdo9325]

This entire time I was hoping at the end you would show me that like quasi quasi connectivity thing at the beginning of the video. That would be insane if that would be possible

[@Wortigon2000]

well, an observer IS a monostable circuit. That can be activated by any form of block state change, except for fill level, or redstone signal strength level (except for redstone dust, where it actually involves a visual indicator, hence shows as a block state change) for some reason. I'm partially thankful for that, while partially surprised. That said, to convert any rising edge/falling edge circuit to the opposite, is a pretty simple change in most cases. Usually a redstone torch and some dust is enough for it. For dual edge, you'd simply have to either include an observer that detects both changes, since that's a 1 block dual edge circuit as you've said too, or connect both states (active/passive) to the output. Still, the one thing I use monostable circuits for, is the toggle functionality. Because I like having note blocks as buttons, since they look so much better than levers. Especially in a build that has so much wood in it, like the indoors parts of most of my builds. Your explonation about the subject matter is easy to understand, and sounds like a good explonation to beginners in redstone. Quite nice video.

[@jazziiRed]

Thanks! I went over a lot of these pointers in the video tho :)

[@kazii_the_avali]

one of my favorite ones are the quiet ones. i rember there was a repeater locking one but i cant for the life of me rember how to do it. i do know you can use it for "automatic" netherportal where when you flip a switch weather its on or off itll light or unlight a netherportal.

[@3liony]

I still default to the old fashioned sticky piston monostable circuit. Need to remember observers more, or that comparator one.

[@tychodancer]

Could you use carpet mod or something slow down the tick pulses? Cause my brain is slow.

[@gameplayseextras6515]

Can you explain a bit of that system from the ancient cities? I know it's a "flip flop" but I think it's really cool.

[@grezamisoit]

The first old mono stable system with the piston is not really mono stable as its behaviour change with a one tick input pulse

[@Agilitynab]

Great video overall - my only suggestion is please don't move or jolt the camera when demonstrating the redstone, as it makes it harder to see and the circuit has already finished by the time the camera stops moving. You could either move the button up a block so that the whole redstone is in view when pressing it, or use the Freecam mod to reposition the camera before pressing the button. Thanks. =)

[@DJAxykOfficial]

I don't get why falling edge will be usefull compared to rising edge, who are faster. I understand the use of both for double short signal, but I don't understand the importance and matter of falling edge alone. Can someone explain me pls ?

[@nosidenoside2458]

What if you NEED that delay? Maybe you need to wait for something to be moved out of the way before you can do whatever the circuit does. Like a flush piston door.

[@jazziiRed]

It's useful if you want to send a signal when a machine turns off but don't want that to happen when it turns on. It's a little less commonly used than rising edge, but it's still pretty common.

[@DJAxykOfficial]

@@jazziiRed okay thanks !

[@cl4655]

​@@DJAxykOfficialFor example, the opening and closing of a piston door are usually different. So one part of the contraption opens the door on the rising edge and another part closes the door on the falling edge.

[@laierr]

Wait. that means that the observer... The observer IS a dual-edge monostable component in all its glory.

[@timgilbert460]

JazziiRed I have a request : ) I have been searching EVERYWHERE for a tutorial on how to build a clock where I get 5 seconds of 'on' followed by 30 seconds of 'off'. I have no real redstone skills so I don't know if I'm asking for something impossible or not. Thanks for the content

[@jazziiRed]

Off the top of my head, I believe this can be achieved by building a regular 35 second clock (like the Etho hopper clock) and hook that up to a monostable (to generate a pulse) and then into a 5-second pulse extender. Hope that made some sense

can you make my redstone build, but better. it's a very simple contraption that combines some things i found to make an auto brewer. [if you can describe/name the redstone ciruit that is not the filter that would help me greatly] if you could just make it smaller and 1.8.9 compatible that would be awesome.

[@PDsPCRepair]

I never liked the term "monostable". While it is true that the circuit only has one stable state, that is not the important aspect of the circuit IMO. The most important aspect is consistent output pulse duration, regardless of input pulse duration, or having a variety of different input pulse durations. When I was first learning about this stuff, having a more appropriate name would have saved me a ton of time in understanding this circuit. Why are longer names avoided when they can be shortened? I wish they would just call it "stable pulse generator" circuit, SPG circuit for short.

Hmmm... The problem is that you've taken the term "monostable circuit" and used it exclusively to describe a "one tick pulse limiter". So that's quite misleading ... A monostable circuit is one that always returns to its original state. What it does in the meantime is irrelevant - it could give out a really long pulse, randomly give between 0 and 100 pulses, play a song on a bunch of notebooks, etc... It's an understandable mistake because almost everyone makes it now. The wiki has a page that describes it correctly and one which describes it incorrectly. Go figure

[@jazziiRed]

The dropper-hopper design is not one-tick, and I gave a proper definition at the beginning that does not imply one tick.
