Beyond Mere Envelopes... Advanced PEG Patching
Hopefully after reading this manual and playing with your PEG, you have a clear understanding of how to make
a variety of timing-dependent envelopes. The following patches illustrate how the PEG's large assortment of
inputs and output types can be used for a variety of purposes besides envelopes.
Complex pattern generator
Use the PEG's quantization features to create complicated repeating beat patterns. For this patch, it's helpful to
have a "metronome" or "kick" in the background being triggered at the steady master clock rate or slow division
of the master clock.
Run a Shuffling Clock Multiplier x8 output (or RCD /1 out) into Ping. Run another SCM output, say S5 or RCD /3,
into QNT. Cycle Off. Div/Mult to "=". Run the ENV output to open a filter (try a 100% Skew, triangle Curve). If the
beat pattern isn't goovy, use a different clock output into QNT (use the SCM's slip/shuffle!), and adjust Div/Mult.
To increase complexity, run EOF into the other channel's Ping. Turn that channel's Cycle on or run a different
clock into QNT. Play with Div/Mult. Use the OR out, or run its ENV out to modulate another sound, or perhaps a
second aspect of the same sound.
If you can, play with the pulse width of the module feeding QNT jacks (the SCM Breakout has a PW knob and
jack, as do many VCOs and LFOs). Longer PW means more repeated notes.
"Ratcheted" quantized beats
Control the repeat rate of each note of a sequenced bassline.
Clock a sequencer and run the same clock into Ping. Presumably one CV output from the sequencer is
controlling the pitch of your "bassline". Patch a different CV output of the sequencer into Div CV. Turn Cycle on
(or run the sequencer's Gate output into the QNT jack). Set each step to a CV value that corresponds to the
number of repeats you want for that particular step. For example, suppose you have an 8-step sequence and
you want notes to be played once for every step until the last note, which you want to be repeated 8 times and
played 8 times as fast... set the sequencer steps 1-7 to 0V output, and step 8 to 5V.
If you want to control the number of times the note repeats (e.g. 8 times as fast, but only hit 4 times), you can
use a sequencer with variable pulse width for its gate output (patched into the QNT jack) or another module to
change the pulse width (e.g. Seq Gate->SCM In and SCM x1 -> PEG QNT, playing with SCM's PW knob)
Self-oscillation (self-patched)
Very chaotic interesting noises. Needs a human to fine-tune the settings. Spend some time on this one!
Patch EOF to Ping. Patch ENV output to your audio mixer. Set Div/Mult to between = and x2 (adjust this very
slowly throughout the patch). Cycle On. Scale will be your output volume. Skew and Curve effect the "timbre"
(heh). Give PING a few taps to get it started.
More advanced: Do the basic patch to both channels, with both ENV outputs going to an audio mixer (or just
listen to the OR output). Now patch Half-Rise into the "T" jack. Play with Cycle button settings. Keep patching
each channel into itself and/or the other. Try running one channel's output to control a filter, the other controls a
VCO running into the filter.
Clockable Trigger Delay
A trigger is fed in, and after a delay (which is determined by a clock), a trigger is outputted.
Patch a trigger (e.g. from Pressure Points gate output) to the Async jack. Patch a clock into the PING jack. Set
Div/Mult to /2. Set Skew to center. EOR will be your delayed trigger output (actually is a gate as wide as the
clock period ). Changing Skew will fine-tune the delay time as well as output gate pulse width.
Audio Harmonizer
Sub-octave and harmonic series from an audio input
Run an oscillator into Ping input. Cycle On. Set your frequency shift amount with the Div/Mult (e.g. x2 will be an
octave up, x3 will be an octave plus a fifth, /8 will be three octaves down, etc...). Audio output from the ENV jack.
Scale sets your volume. Skew and Curve set your waveshape/timbre. Keying Async will mute the signal. Turning
Cycle off and keying QNT will gate the signal.
Do this on both channels and use the T jack to toggle between harmonics, taking the output from the OR jack.
Unplug one channel's Ping to let it slowly drift, creating phaser swooshing sounds.
Run into a LPF with roll-off at 10kHz for a less harsh sound!
