Your projects are very interesting. Very helpful. I'm keeping an eye on it!
It's fun to change the tones manually with a patch like this! Again the "patch mutator" work well on this type of patch! |

Thanks
I have updated the patch attached in the op. I was thinking of getting better timing resolution by running 2 parallel chains and multiplexing the outputs. While experimenting I discovered that the sequencers could run at 12,000Hz if they are fed a signal from the clock divider in square mode.
The new version has the same samples but now they can go twice as high and you can play them from the keys.
Hope to get the wav file utility on line before the end of the weekend.
My plans were to chain the sequencers into the FX area, giving 1024 samples per variation but it seems Clavia has limited the number of consecutive seq modules to 36 :¬0
With a bit of automated variation changing it still could be quite useful. |

Sequencers as sample ROM -lovely idea!
Instead of doing the sample pitching via changing the clock rate (which is jittered by the system frequency and thus creates artifacts), one could play back the sample at a fixed base rate into a delay line used as a keyboard-tracking resampler, which gives the benefit of sample interpolation, unlimited keyboard range and optional anti-aliasing.
I've just moved yesterday, and my whole life is packed up into 30 cardboard boxes and various hardcases , but I might try this out once.
EDIT: Addendum:

Yes, but the G2 numerical resolution is 24 bit, so actually you could cram three 8 bit samples into one sequencer stage. Of course, the encoding app as well as the playback circuit would be more complicated, but it's not impossible and would triple the sample time. 3*16*36=1728 samples. |

Hi Tim, I was hoping you would see this. There is plenty of room for improvement in the playback patch and I am sure you can come up with something amazing.
I have started a thread on the conversion processor here. |

The 'sample playback via delay line re-sampler'-shtick is straightforward, I've used this technique many times for many purposes. It also has the benefit that the huge bulk of sequencers can move into the FX area, where 'stuff' is piped back to the voice area which only does the resampling -making polyphonic application a lot more feasible.
As mentioned, I've just moved and right now I don't even know where my G2Xs are , but I'll try to eventually get to it.
The other issue is causing more trouble: I've been trying to encode three bytes (8 bit) into a 24 bit word as used by the G2, in order to triple the available sample memory -and it doesn't want to work right now. Well, the encoding does work, but the decoding -getting the three bytes back 'out of there'- doen't work as intended, as I probably have false assumptions about the 24 bit fixed point numerical system of the G2 We'll see... |

Yes ! I was going to tell you about this. I had this problem in the past and it is documented on the forum.
