Patch Ideas
Voltage Controlled Transposition - Patch CV sequence to be transposed into
Beast’s Chalkboard top ‘In’. Patch Thru output to Boss Bow Tie (BBT) top right I/O, patch
Chalkboard top section output to 2nd BBT right I/O, patch lower section Beast output
to 3rd BBT I/O. Set Chalkboard dials to required transposition octaves. Patch BBT left
single I/O to Oscillator pitch input. Patch control signal (ie from LFO/other sequencer
etc) to BBT control input. Adjust BBT Offset+Attenuverter to limit range of incoming
control signal to first 3 I/O’s.
Rhythmic sequencing - Patch constant gate (i.e ‘--’ trigger from Pamela’s workout)
into left BBT I/O. Patch 16th trigger (i.e. ‘4’ multiplier trigger from Pam - widened
slightly) into BBT gate input. Patch right BBT I/O’s into triggered drum modules/
patches (dupe outs via mults/cables etc). Patch random control signal to BBT control
input. Adjust BBT Offset+Attenuverter to taste.
M185 style sequencing - This patch requires at least a dual channel sequencer - i.e
for this example we use the Make Noise Brains and Pressure Points. Patch various
Pam trigger multiplied outputs (i.e 1,2,3,4) to BBT right hand side. Dupe ‘1’ trigger into
sequencer clock. Patch left hand side I/O into envelope generator. Patch sequencer
channel 1 pitch output to VCO (which goes to VCA controlled by envelope generator) .
Patch channel 2 output to BBT control input and adjust BBT attenuverter so sequencer
output range matches number of trigger inputs. Now channel 2 controls the step count
for each sequencer stage. Patch can be further varied by changing duped trigger or
duping I/O output instead. Experiment with different (or no) trigger values.
Glitchy Waveshape Sequencing - Patch various unique oscillator wave shape
outputs to right hand side BBT I/O’s. Patch left side BBT I/O to VCA etc. Patch control
signal and adjust. Experiment. Run control signal at audio rates.
