Some CV module requests

[steff3]

Hello,

Some requests I'd like to see:

EnvFollower:
- longer release times
- a hold stage
- a trigger/gate output


Scale and offset
- negative scale values (I know I can do it with the other module - signalproc - but it would be nice to be able to do it here)


CV delay
- to slightly delay CV signals


thanks for considering

best

Done. Those are easy, just tweaking the parameters...


EnvFollower:
- a hold stage
- a trigger/gate output


Well, any module with a gate/trigger input can accept an
arbitrary CV signal and interpret it as a gate or trigger
as necessary (see: http://www.five12.com/doc/gateSeq.html)
In the case of the Env Follower, you'll probably
need to use the Scale&Offset to set a threshold (offset by
some negative value, so the 'floor' becomes an acceptable
level for triggering).

To get a hold, you should use an Envelope: Setup
an EnvFollower/Scale&Offset combo to generate the
triggering signal, feed that into the Envelop, then adjust
the Envelope stages to get the results you're looking for.

Also, if you want to 'steady' or 'normalize' the output of the
EnvFollower, you could use the SignalProc module to scale
it up and clip the maximum value so that you get a flattened
response. In fact, you can probably tweak it so that the
output resembles a gate signal more than a smoothed
audio signal.


CV delay
- to slightly delay CV signals


That's on my list.... :) Btw, for some applications, you might be able
to get the behavior you want out of the Sample&Hold, when using
it as a shift register. It only delays single values, but with an appropriate
trigger (usually a GateSeq), you get complete control over the delay length.

Cheers,
Jim
