Description

Repeating bars with the sequencers I have in my modular eluded me for this junto, so I instead opted to play this by hand using my Pressure Points. I decided to use a rapid 4/4 to define my bars and played a simple 13 bar (1 + 8 + 4 = 13) ascending and descending scale through the first 13 harmonics. I had my E340 set to drone the root harmonic throughout and slowly opened the E440 filter on the way up, and closed it on the way down. I inverted the logic signal with a channel of Maths to close the Dr. Octature Filter wrapped around the E350 on the way up, and to open back up on the way down the scale. The gate created by each press on a Pressure Points pad was fed into the E102 Shift Register to delay the moving pitch's CV by a small amount. This led to the slight pulse in the piece. I ran the clock from the E102 into the Dual Delay which further spread the note hits out a bit more in space. The entire composition seems longer than 13 bars, but the harmonic movement stops at bar 13 and simply fades out naturally.
