Mono clock --> polyphonic round-robin gates?

Given a sequence of clock pulses, how to distribute them round-robin to a poly cable? E.g., if the poly cable is 8 channels, each channel would get every 8th clock pulse.

Pulses:
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |
Poly cable:
|               |
  |               |
    |               |
      |               |
        |               |
          |               |
            |               |
              |               |

Thought this would be easy to find but it’s escaping me (even forum search isn’t turning anything up).

The point is then to apply a poly gate modulator to get overlapping notes.

Thanks.

You can use the pulse signal as both input and clock on a switch, and merge the switch outputs into a polyphonic cable:

Have you tried this thread?

DocB P16S sounds like it may do what you want.

Also, if you want overlapping notes have a look at Bogaudio Assign.

Yep, haven’t tried that but looks as though it has exactly the same function as Assign. Great for making arpeggios or sequences play like a polysynth instead of a monosynth. When we first got polyphony in VCV I wondered why I couldn’t get the same sound as my Juno-6 with arpeggios, those are the modules that make it possible :wink:

Ah, that one was sitting in my library the whole time, but I’d never have thought to search for it by this name.

So Assign + Count Modula Poly Gate Mod has got me sorted.

Thanks! hjh
