Hi, I didn’t see anything on the forum about this so …
I have two sequencers, set to the same pitch, but one with eight steps, the other with five (so only the first five notes), and I send each of them to two quantizers set to the same scale. My aim is to make something happen when the two quantised seqs emit the same note, so the output of the first quant goes to input A of the Logic plugin and the output of the second quant goes to input B of Logic. Now, there’s something that’s triggered when both make a D# or an A#, which is fine, but is there also something that’s triggered when one makes a D# and the other an A#? I think there’s something I don’t understand, it’s too big to be a bug that nobody had seen, so what am I missing?
hello, because you didn’t mentioned, which logic output you use, i think AND.
in logic it is not relevant which input is precisly high or low. A and B is equal B and A.
you have also check the logical state of B for input A and the state of A for input B.
some more logic involved .
There’s this note classifier module that might be helpful for this: VCV Library - Sparkette’s Stuff Note Classifier. There are gates that turn on depending on the note so you could hook one up to each sequencer and then route the corresponding gates through logic and use the output from the AND gate. Of course it will be slightly more complicated to make it work for either case
where seq 1 == D# AND seq 2 == A#
OR
where seq 1 == A# AND seq 2 == D#
@ karlderletzte Oh sorry, yes, it was obviously a problem with the AND output. But I’m not sure of what you advice me to check ? I’ve checked the voltage, AND activates when they are the same but also when they are 1.250 and 1.833
LOGIC works on binary gate signals - Each input is classified as being either High (on), or Low (off).
If you want to compare free ranging voltages then you need a comparator. There are many out there. If you are using identical digital quantizers than you can probably look for exact matches. But to be safe you might want to set a tolerance for equivalency, meaning you want a windowed comparator.
There are lots of comparator modules to choose from. Of course I am rather partial to my Venom WinComp module.
Plug one quantizer output into A and the other into B. The A=B output will go high whenever A and B are the same. To add a tolerance simply turn the TOL offset a bit off of zero. A tolerance of 0.04 is close to a quarter tone, meaning if A is within one quarter tone of B, then the gate is high.
