Another fun way to think about the 245T's analog input is as a quantizer. A very, very weird 4 channel one, with custom scales of 5 notes or fewer. (oh duh you've JUST said that in the video, here I thought I was being smart)
wi@@Stazmawith four banks it's very versatile. Pitch, filter freq, FM modulation index and panning...at once. One thing i used to do at CalArts was use it to control it's own pulse generator and set up the steps so it cuts it's frequency in half a few times (think half note/quarter/eight/16th - then advance the sequnecer using the analog input, but do it with a stepped random that is in sync with the pulser. Instant random rhythms.
Lovely patch idea I'll give it a try. I do love to use one lane to control the width of the pulser to get different hold time with 281, makes funky things. By the way are you the man behin PlanB ? @@PeterGrenader
@@PeterGrenader niiice! Fun to have you here. I remember being in the hunt for one of your timbral gate back when I started eurorack, couldn’t find one and ended up finding the QMMG I still have now. Will check out your new modules then ;-)
Cool. But this video is also confusing because the pitch sequence is coming from something else, not sure if you mentioned that, took me a while, was wondering whats going on.
I really like the analog in for stage select. Like the phase-driven sequencing in Bitwig or using Phasor in Max/msp. I feel it's the most natural way to drive a sequencer. I just discovered these techniques and I want to implement those in an actual module, maybe with schmitt triggers.

Hahaha indeed that's one of the funniest (yet very hard to tune) way to use it ;-)
Thanks for your videos! They are super helpful
Why is using a sequencer as a sequencer not the best use for it?
I meant to say as a « note sequence » and because I think the 245 are better to modulate other parameters of a sound such as timbre or lengths.

It's not properly explained it's true, it was obvious in my mind that's why. I got better at explaining over the years hahaha.
Very helpful! 👍 Thank you very much!
Merci bien! J'aime beaucoup tes tutos!
The cv input on the Voltage Block I’m assuming is influenced by the analog input.

Interesting ! Happy to try that module if need any beta testers let me know ;-)
