I figured it out, it was because it is not polyphonic. I was sending gates from the MIDI keyboard to two different VCO/VCF/ADSR/VCA chains and expected it to play notes on one of the chains randomly. But most of the time it didn’t play any note, because it only handles channel 0 of the polyphonic gate.
Once I set MIDI->CV to Monophonic it worked as expected.
I’ve added a new module in the dev branch, Automata. It’s a trigger (and optionally CV) sequencer based on Conway’s Game of Life. Nightlies available here.
It’s a fairly complex module, so it’ll definitely need some more testing before it can be added to the VCV library.
This one’s called Warp, it’s a phase distortion effect for audio.
It’s very closely related to frequency/phase modulation in oscillators, but works with arbitrary audio! It’s a lot like a wavefolder in some ways, but leaves the amplitude of the signal (practically) unchanged.
Here’s a mini example of it in action:
