AE Modular QUANTIZER - Rhythm Generator Demo #TTNM
video by THE TUESDAY NIGHT MACHINES
"A short demo video showing how you can use the tangible waves AE Modular QUANTIZER module as a beat machine :D More info below!
♥ SUPPORT: http://bit.ly/ttnm-support ♥
The QUANTIZER module not only quantizes four CV signals into a musical 1V/Oct pitch scale, but it also comes with trigger outputs. Each of those output fires when a new note step is reached. By sending an LFO at different amplitudes into the QUANTIZER channels, you can thus create strange but repeating rhythms."

another drum machine
video by wildchurch
"Quick overview of another drum machine: lo-fi 8 bit samples with pitch control, panning and FX insert options
Built around the following:
- LMNC's Big Button sequencer: https://www.lookmumnocomputer.com/pro...
- Drum samples on six ATtiny85 chips - using Jan Ostman's Drum Creator tool: http://synthworks.eu/attiny85-drum-cr...
- MFOS Ultra-simple Mono-in Panning Mixer: http://musicfromouterspace.com/analog...
I've added inserts to the first 3 channels of the mixer to allow FX send and return
I also wired up the big button for afterlife's MIDI upgrade: [video here] ..but it doesn't seem to behave well with this build so currently I've got the original code installed on the arduino until I resolve the issue
Cheers"

"The Sequential Circuits Prophet VS - Analog-Ddigital Hybrid version of the famous Prophet 5, featuring a vector joystick for controlling sound modeling... [the following appears to be pulled from this Perfect Circuit article]
'Chris Meyer, the conceptual creator of the Prophet VS, states that the "Eureka" moment that led to the Prophet VS emerged from a conversation about the PPG Wave—while drawing an explanation of the Wave's interpolation method, it occurred to him that waveshapes could be interpolated in two dimensions. That is to say—rather than fading constantly between two waves on opposite ends of a spectrum, it could be possible to have a diamond shape with different waves at each corner, and to traverse seamlessly between the four in order to create a wealth of timbral variety from only a handful of distinct shapes. Meyer went on to test his hypothesis on his personal modular synthesizer, using a huge number of resources to manage the two-dimensional crossfading he sought—but his experiment was successful. And though the name did not emerge until later, this is when Vector Synthesis was born.
And while this reduction of the technique may seem straightforward, managing the continuous blending between four sound sources requires a lot of resources: in the analog world, it would require VCAs whose levels change in tandem with one another—an effect that would require tons of offsets, polarizers, and signal multiples (let alone patch cables) in order to work. The genius of the Prophet VS lies not only in its embrace of novel sound design...it also lies in its remarkable vocabulary of modulation sources, and their relationship to the core idea of two-dimensional waveshaping.'"

via this auction
"A simple and effective gate and trigger generator. Four individual momentary touch pads send both +5v gate and trigger signals simultaneously as the touch button is pressed via 4x2 3.5mm outputs.
TOUCH PADS AND OUTPUTS
Four hexagonal touch buttons.
- each generates +5v gate and trigger outputs simultaneously.
- gate signal holds as long as the pad is touched.
- individual jacks for trigger and gate."
