Example Patches

The Sampler works well with a standard CV/Gate sequencer.

The Trigger or Gate output of the Sequencer is patched to the Play/Rec trigger input of the Sampler.

This makes the sample fire on each sequencer step. Some sequencers have gate repeat effects,

which will make the Sampler fire a sample multiple times per step.

The CV output of the sequencer is patched to any of the CV inputs on the Sampler. If you want to use

the sequencer to control pitch (playing a sample at various pitches), patch into the Pitch jack.

If you want a "multi-timbral" effect, patch the CV output into the Sample CV jack. Each step of the

sequencer can trigger a different sample to play.

If you have a sequencer with 2 or more CV outputs, you can even sequence both pitch and sample

selection at once!

You can also select "slices" of a long sample by running the Sequencer into the Start Pos. CV jack.

Each step of the sequencer can thus play a different slice of the original sample.

Sampler as the clock source: End Out->Clock In

One variation of this patch is to use the Sampler itself to clock the sequencer by patching End Out to

the Sequencer's clock input. Make sure to set the sequencer to run on external clock.

To start the patch, hit Play on the Sampler once. The End Out will fire, thus clocking the sequencer,

which starts a sample on the Sampler, which fires an End Out when it finishes, which advances the

sequencer, etc... The Length control on the Sampler will control the tempo, which will vary with each

step if the samples are of different lengths. Try this patch with the Sequencer CV out into the Sample

CV.

Note: if the patch seems to run for a moment and then stop, the gate pulse width on the sequencer is

probably preventing it from firing new steps. Either reduce PW to triggers or hold Play on the Sampler

for half a second to loop.

Clock Divided Reverse

Try splitting/mult'ing End Out and running it to Reverse. Or patch End Out into a clock divider and

use the divisions to reverse playback every N steps.

Since the Sampler can play fragments of a sample as small as a few milliseconds, it can be used for

some basic granular synthesis techniques such as granular scrubbing. This can be used for a variety

of sounds, including time-stretching (without changing pitch), and pitch-shifting (without modifying

playback time).

The simplest way to play with granular scrubbing on the Sampler is to load a familiar sample: a drum

loop or a vocal sample, perhaps. For starters, pick a sample that's between 1 and 10 seconds long.

1. Turn Start Pos and Length to 0%.

2. Hold PLAY to make the Sampler loop. You should hear a buzzy tone.

3. Slowly turn the Start Pos knob up, and listen how the sample is played (scrubbed). Start Pos is

essentially sweeping the play head.
