MUSICAL FEATURES

Compact clock divider Rotating Clock Divider (RCD) with unique split CV control. Divides the input clocks at various ratios and outputs the delimited clock from each output. In addition, cv control is possible in a unique way the number of divisions by "Rotate" CV.

In RCD,

What number of split sclocks are output from each jack?
Whether the output signal is a gate signal or a instantaneous trigger
Where do you want to output the clock for the same number of divisions?
Do you reset automatically in a short cycle?

It is possible to do in the setting of the jumper on the base. Or RCD Break Out you can control them from the panel in real time without accessing the jumper. The clock of the number of "half-hearted" divisions, such as five divisions and seven divisions, can also create an interesting rhythm while keeping the normal bar breaks by applying the reset signal at a good timing. It is also very useful as a rhythm experiment module.

Rotate CV
If you go through the Rotate CV little by little, from each jackThe number of divisions of the clock signal increases. The number of splits often increases by one, and when the jumper reaches the maximum number of splits that can be set, it returns to split number 1.(The relationship between the number of Rotate CVs and clock dividers isManualPlease take a look at the 5-6 page "Rotation Tables" in detail. )
If the maximum number of divisions is 8 (the default jumper setting) the number of adjacent outputs varies by one, so if you take a little bit of rotation CV, the clock output from each output by the above properties moves to the jack above, and the signal changes so that the output from the top jack moves to the bottom.

DETAILS

Describes the various settings of jumpers on the basis of rcd.

The blue jumper on the top six is the jumper set in RCD. The image is the default setting for the jumper. RCD Breakout points to the cable from rcdbo in this jumper part, allowing you to change these settings on the panel.

The image above shows the RCD jumper. From the top, the jumper is numbered with "7,8,3,4,5,6". The jumper is called "ON" when two pins are connected by the jumper, and the state that is not connected is called "OFF". The difference of the setting by ON/OFF of each jumper is as follows.

Jumper setting of 3,4,5. The combination of number 3 and 4 determines the basic range of clock signals output from eight outputs. The range of divisions driven by the Rotation CV is also determined by number 3 or 4.

Number 5 is a jumper with "Spread Mode", and in the case of On, it outputs from eight outputs relatively evenly from a small clock to a large clock, but in the case of Off, only clocks close to the maximum number of divisions are output from eight outputs as shown in the upper table.

Jumper setting of no. 6. When on, it resets at the length according to the Divide-by Range determined by the jumper of 3 and 4.

Jumper setting of no. 7. Down-beat is a mode in which the clock begins with "ON" at the first beat of any split number of clocks. Up-beat is a mode in which the clock begins with "ON" at the last beat of each split.

Jumper setting of no. 8. If you select On, the gate signal is kept on for exactly half the time until the next ON timing after the output signal is turned on once. When off, the output signal becomes a trigger and is turned on only for a very short period of time.
