Description

zb.metricPattern is a device that can generate rhythmical patterns in arbitrary divisions of the bar.

The bars of the graph represent the rests in the pattern, zero i.e. the bottom of the graph specifies no rest meaning that the next note will be triggered at the next pulse.

The underlying pulse is controlled by the numerator and the denominator that divide the bar.

The length of the pattern is determined by the bars in the graph as well as the amount of bars displayed which can be controlled by the steps parameter.

The size parameter allows for extending the vertical range of the graph allowing for longer rest times.

The pattern will be generated while the note at the input is held. Triggered notes have a controllable pitch, velocity and duration.

The device has two modes of operation, if it is resetting than each new input not will restart the pattern, otherwise the pattern will continue.

The scramble button will randomly exchange the position of the bars, changing the pattern but retaining the rhythmical cycle.
