Description

This device allows the user to generate DC Pulses that change according to an intervale that is (or not) fixed to the grid. This can be very useful in conjunction with modular synths and other equipment that accept CV. Note that DC voltages can damage equipment and only use this device if you know what you are dealing with.

Have fun and leave some feedback for future improvements!

1.1 update:

Added individual attack and release controls, replacing the smooth control

Added displays for the pulse width, attack and relsease times

The sliders stay as saved after the project is closed and opened again

Ui improvements

1.2 update:

Fully synched with Ableton when in sync mode. It's also aware of which step should be synched to, so results are consistant even working with the arrangement view in this mode

Retrigger possible when in free mode (non synched). Retriggering resets the sequence to the first step

Ui improvements, such as highlighting which step of the sequence is being triggered

1.2.1 update:

Bug fixes: Unable to undo fixed

UI changes

1.3 update:

Bug fixes: Sliders would be set randomly everytime the device was loaded, recalled and copied. Now it is reliable for creating presets, live sets and overall use.

Calibrated the attack and release times for a more reliable use.

Added a toggle to switch between linear and exponential scales for the slider values.
