Arduino Clock Divider Logic Thing Review (for modular synthesizers)


Published on Aug 19, 2018 Sbranvlztronics

"A description of the Arduino Clock Divider Logic Thing module functionality. This module is a clock divider using an ATmega328 microcontroller, a bunch of shift registers, transistors and opamps. The 20 HP panel is made of plastic, behind it there are be four pcbs to accommodate the circuits (all hand drawn and using only thru-hole components...). The divider section has 8 outputs, with division ratios defined in software (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 or whatever wanted). There is a logic section with another 8 outputs, the logic gates and divisions configuration being selected by a potentiometer and a switch (64 configurations, or algorithms). Also one AND and one XOR patcheable gates sharing two inputs, a random trigger output, and a MIDI output. The software can be modified using a FTDI connection on the front panel. The clock can be internal (controlled by a pot) or external, or can be controlled by any external continuous CV (there is an attenuation/inverter pot and an offset pot for this CV), the conditioned CV has its output on panel. And of course a lot of LEDs...
The circuits involved will be shown in another video.

Thanks for watching.
