- Clock Cross-Modulation #1
Today we want to mess around with that one thing you aren’t supposed to touch: THE CLOCK.
We set up USTA’s track 1 to work with SAPÈL’s clock, and track 3 to work as an internal LFO controlling the clock speed. In this way, track 3 controls track 1’s tempo.
INGREDIENTS
- 1 USTA
- 1 SAPÈL
- 1 BRENSO
DIRECTIONS
- Set up a basic sequence as in CV, Gate, Length, but use SAPÈL’s clock output instead of the internal one (see Clock and Ratio).
- Set another track to work with internal clock and select a rate to taste. In this patch, we used Track 3.
- Set up a two-stage sequence with fairly long stages.
- Select Track 3’s CV B and set the second stage to a high CV to taste.
- Set both stages’ color to green.
- Patch Track 3’s CV B out to SAPÈL’s Gate/CV modulation input and set the Gate/CV modulation switch to the right.
(Now track 7 works as an independent LFO that modulates SAPÈL’s clock speed.)
