maybe this

or this

Thanks, I will take a look at those. I was thinking it would be fun to do a poly rhythm based on whether the current clock tick number was prime or not.

This can do primes 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17 and 19 in Mode P (Prime)

Can also do 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 in Mode D (Decimal)

Thanks. I’m not sure I can do what I would like using existing modules, but that is okay. I will keep thinking about it. What I was imagining doing was taking the first 100 primes such as at:

And then do a cliock tick count modulus some N and do a trigger or gate if that clock tick count is prime. But, that will almost certainly require some programming.

Maybe I can do something similar with your module.

Maybe use Formula One. The manual shows a Gate Sequencer and I think the length of the sequence could be easily adapted to prime numbers.

Great idea. I will take a look/ Thanks. It would give me a good reason to play with this module, which I have not yet, for unknown reasons.

Wow. Looks like exprtk expression library which FormulaOne is based on has example scripts for producing a table of primes. This may be easy, as well as open up a whole new world of possibilities. Thanks again.

Edit: Well, a bit of work. The library examples are in C++ and FormulaOne appears to be Javascript-ish.

I totally agree with you, man. Thanks a lot for sharing this video. That’s very interesting. I’d be very grateful if you kept us updated on such videos. That would be awesome. I’ll definitely share this video with all my friends. You know, somehow it has happened that most of my friends are music lovers and I love this fact because we are always open to new genres. Btw, do you know any good movies and documentaries about music? I’d be really grateful for your suggestions. Thanks in advance.

Nice guy and not perfect, I like that :smiley:

I really like that. For my more serious projects, I use the GPU to massively parallel compute 2 million 3D point particle clouds stereoscopically at video frame rates (on the low end though). It is amazing what can be done on modern GPUs these days. We truly have supercomputers on our desks these days.

I am some kind of an expert here (self-proclaimed), and all these bands are cool and fine, but there are bands and artists there that are even weirder and… just more interesting. I mean, I love PK14 and Carsick Cars and all that, but what about Li Jianhong or Torturing Nurse… Or Raying Psychedelic Coalition… The rabbit hole goes kilometers deeper than what was reviewed here
