I am close to releasing drumbo~ a granulating drum chopper w/octave harmonization & recirculating-schroeder-reverb it’s a drum patch that is uses chaotic variation and physical models for variable functions It uses pmpd [physical modeling for Pd] to apply fluctuating values on buffer values, the results are pretty fun from my testing some notes on the chopperL i implemented: > **[Hacheur (électronique)](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hacheur_(%C3%A9lectronique))** > > Si vous disposez d'ouvrages ou d'articles de référence ou si vous connaissez des sites web de qualité traitant du thème abordé ici, merci de compléter l'article en donnant les références utiles à sa vérifiabilité et en les liant à la section « Notes et références » > En pratique : Quelles sources sont attendues ?

Higher values of skw will have an upwards ramp /| shape, and lower values will have a sharper attack | An envelope with shp=1 and skw=50 is a quasi-gaussian shape. dlt - Point in the delay line from which grains are read, up to 8000 ms. fb - feedback level (amount of dlgranulator’s output which is fed back into the delay line). voices - highest number of possible simultaneous grains (currently max. 16). The actual number of grains is determined by dur & iot as well. each parameter (except fb & voices) is controlled by 2 faders: the left fader controls the center value, and the right fader controls the range of possible values. Each parameter is chosen at random from within those boundaries. ---

Hey i need a few bug testers for this patch Anyone down with some bug testing for me? I need a few people to test this out thanks pp ---

drumbo~ Granular Drum Machine OPERATION MANUAL\*\*\*\* Aux1 should turn on/off the Sample Player Aux2 should select a new drum loop Aux 3 turns on the physical modelling control voltage for the buffer randomization Aux5 Turns on the routing for the Delay Filtering Au6 Turns on/off the Sample Recorder 83 Starts loop recording 82 stops the recording 81 Type of granular [graincloud, pulsetrain, artifacts] three taps 72 step through mix modes [off, mix in, add] three taps 60 Buffer X sync 61 Buffer Y sync 62 Buffer gate on/off 63 Delay filter routing 64 sets the type of physical model [super elastic, loose elastic, follow and slowdown, super loose, tight] Fixed Recoding function On Page 6 you set the recording level in, 83 & 82 turn the recorder on off and 72 lets you select what kind of recording you want to do, a fresh New recording, mix in with and Add onto. So in theory ONTO the buffer and after the buffer, i hope that is clear. ---

i guess yours is broken ☹ Did you see the Notes? Aux1 should turn on/off the Sample Player Aux2 should select a new drum loop Aux 3 turns on the physical modelling control voltage for the buffer randomization Aux5 Turns on the routing for the Delay Filtering Au6 Turns on/off the Sample Recorder 83 Starts loop recording 82 stops the recording 81 Type of granular [graincloud, pulsetrain, artifacts] three taps 72 step through mix modes [off, mix in, add] three taps 60 Buffer X sync 61 Buffer Y sync 62 Buffer gate on/off 63 Delay filter routing 64 sets the type of physical model [super elastic, loose elastic, follow and slowdown, super loose, tight] Fixed Recoding function On Page 6 you set the recording level in, 83 & 82 turn the recorder on off and 72 lets you select what kind of recording you want to do, a fresh New recording, mix in with and Add onto.

if you are on windows make sure that when you unzipped the folder it did not create a folder inside of a folder this is the single most probelmatic issue for windows users. If you unzip the file peak inside the new directory and make sure you can see the files [do not edit them but if inside the new folder there is ANOTHER folder you have to use THAT folder on the organelle]. Remember, Organelle needs to find “main.pd” inside a folder to operate on the Critter & Guitari Organelle If the files are there then follow the NOTES provided 1.) UNZIP THE FOLDER [check to make sure regarding the folder in a folder anomaly [usually windows only] 2.) PLACE THE FOLDER in the /Patches folder on your Organelle 3.) Load the file by navigating to “drumbo” and using the selection knob and pressing it the drumbo system will load [if you don;t see a menu 99% of the time the "folder in a folder issue has occurred" 4.) Press AUX 1 to start the sample playback. Still no sound? The system is on but you probabaly need to select a soundfile. Navigate to AUX2 and press AUX2 once to LOAD A SAMPLE. There are about 150MB of DRUM LOOPS included. On first operation you might have to LOAD a SAMPLE Try these steps first ---
