4051 Plexquencer

so i built this and it works, but the a/b/c inputs are really picky and don’t work with everything.

  • the lmnc LFOs don’t work unless you boost the signal.
  • direct clock from the midimuso or from my arturia minifreak doesn’t work
  • lmnc ADSRs do work if you loop them and set decay quite short and sustain to zero.
  • trig out from the 2001 sequencer works.
  • audio directly from VCOs works but is obviously really fast.

and i noticed the 2 gate outputs work the wrong way around. if you flick a switch to the left (i.e. to gate output 1) it puts out a gate on output 2 instead and vice versa. is this a mistakte in the design or did i do something wrong?

and finally some of the features are still quite confusing, like what does the gate input do? and the V in? @lookmumnocomputer it would be cool to have a proper video explaining all this :slight_smile:
