How to switch sequencers with MIDI notes with Voltage Modular

This is yosi from Chillout with Beats.

I will write articles about this area in the future.

However, this time I will write "How to switch sequencers with MIDI notes".

After researching various things, I thought that this could be used, so it also serves as a memorandum.

Modules required to switch sequencers with MIDI notes with Voltage Modular

The required modules are as follows.

For the time being, I will use two sequencers to make it easier to understand.
(If you want to increase it, you can increase it to 96th place by changing MIDI Ch.)

・ POLY OSCILLATOR * 1
・ POLY FILTER * 1
・ POLY AMPLIFIER * 1
・ POLY ENVELOPE GENERATOR * 1
・ MINI–POLY-TO-MONO-CV * 1
・ MIDI DRUM TRIGGER * 1
・ MONO TO POLY * 1
・ BOOLEAN LOGIC * 2
・ 8-Step-Sequencer * 2

To briefly explain the mechanism, if you continue to input MIDI notes corresponding to "MIDI DRUM TRIGGER", the corresponding sequencer will be played by "BOOLEAN LOGIC" and the synth will sound.

"BOOLEAN LOGIC" is described in detail in the following article, so please read it if you are interested.

Prepare a Poly synth

I took a video.

The following modules were added in this video.

・ POLY OSCILLATOR * 1
・ POLY FILTER * 1
・ POLY AMPLIFIER * 1
・ POLY ENVELOPE GENERATOR * 1
・ MINI–POLY-TO-MONO-CV * 1

It's very easy because it's the same as Mono just by using Poly.

I will also post a large screenshot.

Addition of module to switch sequencer by MIDI note

Create the mechanism of the next trigger part.

The modules to be added here are as follows.

・ MIDI DRUM TRIGGER * 1
・ MONO TO POLY * 2
・ BOOLEAN LOGIC * 2
・ 8-Step-Sequencer * 2

I took a video.

I also prepared a large screenshot.

Since the number of modules has increased a little, I will explain it.

When MIDI notes 36 and 37 come in from "MIDI", "MIDI DRUM TRIGGER" outputs "GATE". (For PC keyboard, it is C2 or C # 2)

Two cables from 36 and 37 of "MIDI DRUM TRIGGER" come out from "BOOLEAN LOGIC", and the sequence is played while there is a MIDI note input, and when it stops, the playback also stops.

I introduced "BOOLEAN LOGIC" earlier, but please read this article.If you understand this well, you can make various switches.

Explanation of Voltage Modular BOOLEAN LOGIC

This is yosi from Chillout with Beats, an explanation of Voltage Modular BOOLEAN LOGIC.It's going to be a bit of a maniac direction, but whether or not you have a solid understanding of this area will make a big difference later.First of all, the manual Goo...

All that is left is to combine the "OUT" and "GATE OUT" of the "2-Step-Sequencer" into two "MONO TO POLY" respectively.

Summary of how to switch sequencers with MIDI notes with Voltage Modular

It is possible to switch the sequencer very simply.

Of course, it can be controlled from your DAW, so you can use it in various ways.
