Here come the seqeuencers! The G.I.M.P. - S.E.; Quadatrix and the modified MFOS Sequencers!
(Please note: I have removed the Klee and MIDIbox Seq V2.00 from my production backlog. Both are for sale.)
The QUADATRIX 4x4 Sequencer is ALIVE!
3 of the 4 Semiblocks are functioning / 4th and vertical section changer still to be added
1 of the Octablocks is functioning / 2nd, 3rd, 4th and vertical section changer still to be added
- new video of it in the Design section - October 1008
Recent advertisement ideas for the Quadatrix (tho, it'll never be for sale. ;-) LOL ) :
1) "The Molindarius Sound! Un-obtainable with any other sequencer!" says so'n'so
2) "Respect the past and leave it be. Switch to the future with the Quadatrix 4x4!" someone were not heard to say.

Wilson Rych |
1)
The MFOS Sequencer digital board. All 4 control bits, QA to QD are brought out to front panel jacks for sending elsewhere as well as returning from elsewhere, for external processing. 2) Each sequencer's clock is separated from the sequencer so that the sequencer may receive external timimg divisions. |
The
1st of the 2 sequencers is up and running. 1 modification is in prototype and is functioning in a useful though unintended way. Sequencer #2 is now awaiting installation of it's LEDs to be completed |

#3 MFOS Sequencer ART by: Ryk Thekreator DEDICATIONS / RESPECT TO: person's name removed due to his Break and Enter crime on our property |
Ray Wilson |
Ray's
MFOS Sequencer. No FINE controls for the voltage on each step as this sequencers intent of use is for controlling drum voices and providing amplitude control on each of the 16 steps. Artwork completed in November 2007. The crime occurred in June 2008. The criminals name was covered up, in the artwork, to remove respect given to him. |
MANY
changes have occurred in the panel controls since the original panel
was drawn in early July 2008. Labelling on many portions is
incorrect and must be repaired. Not having any panel mount pushbuttons, I'm currently using temporary buttons that I've salvaged from work, giving a very odd appearance - which I may actually stick WITH. ;-) |

# unknown I will be resurrecting my Voltage Controlled Wave Splitter that I designed and built in 1996. |
Rych | The new
version WILL have actual Voltage Control over the output levels. 2 later versions of the 1st had been built. Neither version though had the waveform inversion "accident" that the 1st one did. That, was the most powerful effect, of the 1st version of it. |

# unknown Split Wave (TM 1996 ;) ) processor |
Rych | In
1996, I came up with the idea of splitting the VCO's waveforms in half, so that each half of different waveforms could be mixed together to form a new waveform. I'll be resurrecting this idea when I design and build my waveform converters module. (Saw to Tri; Tri to Sine; Saw to Pulse Width #1; Saw to Pulse Width #2) |

# unknown 5 bit sequencer |
Rych | My
breadboard test of a 4 bit sequencer (4 switches to select 1 of 16 1V/Octave pitches) was successful in November 2007. My final version will have 5 bits (for 32 1V/O pitches) across 8 steps. |
