Yeah, I think a basic clock generator would be a great addition to the lineup. If it was combined with a clock divider/multiplier, or even if they were small separate product that would be really cool.
I personally don’t think attenuverters would be necessary. If you need them, just use a duatt or quadratt in conjunction where needed in the patch. Minimize hp and leave the signal flow open. But either way it would be a wonderful utility option that currently isn’t offered in this format.
Nice design! I can see that being useful and a lot of fun. Personally I think it would be worth making it a bit wider to include a CV input and attenuverter. I pondered a crossfader curve control and CV input, but I think a rear trimmer would be sufficient.
with CV input, attenuverter… and may be CV reference output : -5v (fader full to the left) to +5v (fader full to the right) and its inverted output to control other stuff
Oh yeah the REF position output is a good idea! An alternative to the INV output could be a SENSE output similar to Planar where a gate is output while movement is detected.
Also, I think the Intellijel standard layout would position the attenuverter above the input rather than below.
Out of curiosity, is that the actual measured size of the slider? As in, you used a specific part as a size reference when doing the mock-up? Or was it more a case of “this is about how big I think the slider should be”?
Absolutely a clock generator! A basic divider would be nice unless it meant greatly increased hp. A separate divider would be cool too though. I have to say that I am kind of partial to having a BPM indicator if possible.
1U Clock Divider/Multiplier with tap tempo/mode button (generates clock - maybe two buttons on it - one for tap tempo - one for stop/start/mode via holding button). 1 input, 5 outs.
Here’s my idea for a chainable summing and buffered multiple module. It’s inspired by the Frap 333 but with each 3-in/3-out group being its own module. The idea would be to chain them behind the panel with the summed output of one module half-normaled to the first input of the next module. I could see replacing the -6dB attenuator switch with a attenuation knob (or just make that a chainable breakout module).
This is probably already here but, how about a 6hp slew module.
It could be just like what is on the right of noise tools, but I want more than one in my rack(s)
