My numerology sequences get interesting fast, but without variation they become static, and boring or even just irritatingly mundane.
To address this I've made all kinds of refinements to the way I work my material using the many tools available to me in Numerology.
The goal in this example is to shift my note divides through a sequence to create rythmic variation.
To do this I use a Velocity sequencer and patche its CV stepnumber output into a paramod with mod destination the same parmod module index two, then I set velocity sequencers velocity range to 1-16. I patch the velocity out to paramod slot 2. with a destination Mono note, parameter: Divide.
Using a Velocity sequencer setup like this I can use it to program note divide values remotely in a destination mono note.
Why not do this on the mono note directly? Because I have set up one more modulation for another level of control.
I route an additional gate sequencer into a paramod And set it to send a gate on after 12 beats with a destination the Velocity sequencer, the parameter, shift right. Now my note divides shift through the whole sequence one step every 12 beats, this is crazy cool to keep the sequence ever changing in a cohesive way...Say I program note divides on step 2 6 and 9 want to change it two steps every 12 beats, just make two gate ons to shift on beat 11 and 12 for example, next time the mono not plays throught steps 4 8 and 11 are divided by the amount I've set on the Velocity sequencer,
This moving of the parameter adjustments for one individual parameter through a sequences using shift left of right, opens up allkinds of hooks into the mono note, use it for divide, not length, velocity, pitch, gate and get a much more lively, living and breathing output out of your sequences..
For this setup up the modules used are:
1 Gate sequencer(the shifter)
2 paramod modules, one for the shifter and a 2nd parmod slot one for aligning the step number and slot two for sending the divide value.
1 Velocity sequencer
1 mononote or other sequencer.
a sound module of choice.
