Voltage Controlled MIDI Arpeggiator

[analogmonster]

I was asked to develop a simple-to-use and simple-to-include Voltage Controlled MIDI Arpeggiator.



Specs from the customer:
- No generic MIDI processor which has to be configured
- Built as module for a modular setup
- To be integratable in any MIDI chain
- Plug in and use
- 5 different programs how MIDI chords should be serialized:
-- Down-Up
-- Down
-- Random
-- Up
-- Up-Down
- Remote control / external trigger
- Transparent passing of MIDI sequences when not activated by remote control

Specs I added because I consider them as useful:
- Adjustable processing and repetition speed (CLOCK)
-- Manually with a pot
-- Per CV
-- Per external clock input
- Speed / clock created by the module or provided externally is provided at a clock output for synchronization purposes of other modules
Monophonic MIDI streams are processed with a ratcheting effect, only chords are processed with Arpeggio
- Ratcheting repetition rate is determined by program selecten (2-6)

First demo video: A polyphonic keyboard is used with a monophonic modular setup:
