An improved test patch using a new accumulator (polycounter by alef’s bits) yields a more compact patch design.

This now also allows testing across multiple octaves.
With the new setup, Polyturing (stocaudio), which yielded an even distribution when tested within a single octave, now shows a bell-shaped curve around C4 when spreading the signal across 4 octaves.

In contrast, Turing Machine (Stellare Modular) showed a more or less even distribution, with several individual spikes that did not seem excessive.

Finally, Proteus (Seaside Modular) in C minor mode showed a bell-like histogram that was strongest in the 4th octave, flanked by lower probabilities in Octaves 3 and 5.
