Ratcheting: Introduction, plus Using a VC Clock Multiplier

An overview of what's needed to create a "ratcheting" patch where individual steps of a sequencer are re-triggered multiple times, plus a demonstration of how to create the patch using a voltage controlled clock multiplier.
This is the second in a series of 4 videos showing variations of this patch:

And here's the article that ties it all together:

I'm diving into eurorack modular and this is great to know. Thanks in advance. Closest I've come to recreation once was a arturia keystep sequence and adjusted rate on the fly.

[@glueball9511]

this guy is excellent at this. thankyou very much sir

[@WillFehlhaberMusicOfficial]

I think this channel is doing really well. Keep up the good work!

[@sheepkillindog]

Great levels and very clear description of your patching. Just subscribed!

[@norasmith9404]

Thanks for keeping it simple. Excellent work.

[@LearningModular]

Thank you. It's very easy to get too excited and leave things out; I'm trying to make sure I include enough information for relative beginners as well as experienced users.

Great video dude! I've been wanting to ratchet my sequences for a project I've been working on..... I use a make noise rene as my main sequencer! Now I realise I have a purpose for my 4ms PEG..... all I need now is a Korg sq1and I'm sorted, it can do what you're doing with your doepfer sequencer!

[@dustamc]

great vid thanks

[@Symmetry77]

How would you go about instead of multiplying the clock you wanted to divide the clock since the 0v from the sequencer equals to original clock? Would you need an offset generator in order to do negative volts?

[@LearningModular]

Another video in this series demonstrates using a clock multiplier instead of divider. Here's the overall article that ties all the techniques together: learningmodular.com/patching-a-ratcheting-sequence/ And here's the playlist with all 4 videos: kzbin.info/aero/PLli7NH8pJF8TgLci8HhcbCYBespKDBGMX Sorry for the delayed reply; I tried to answer this before, but my reply seems to have disappeared. Hopefully this one sticks.

[@Puto73]

Amazing. I have a Doepfer A160-5. Can I use this to achieve what you are doing?

[@LearningModular]

Yes, the A160-5 would be perfect for this.

[@Puto73]

@@LearningModular Thank you so much for replying. How on earth would i patch this. i also have the doepfer sequential switch. I've watched your video multiple times. Please help. Your videos are absolutely amazing by the way.

[@LearningModular]

Take the second row from the sequencer - the one used to set the multiplications for ratcheting - and patch it to the CV In on the A-160-5. Patch a copy of the sequencer's clock to 160-5's Clock In, and the 160-5's Clock Out to the gate in on the ADSR. Like this: www.doepfer.de/a1605.htm

[@Puto73]

Thanks once again for replying. I did exactly that: however, not getting it like the way your results are. What am I missing? I’ll try again tonight. Much respect!

[@Knoc_Whearity]

@@LearningModular Can this be done using a MAQ16/3 ???? cheers.....

[@Mrpepito1989]

1980 called, it want's its ponytail back :p

[@LearningModular]

But notice it's a smaller, Eurorack-size ponytail...
