3D Model
The CGS336 is a pulse divider with
integer divisions between 2 and 8. The divider
is used to generate interrelated pulses for use
in creating poly-rhythms, and unusual sequences.
It can also be run at audio frequencies as a
sub-oscillator/sub harmonic generator. The
output pulse from each division is one clock
cycle in length, and the relationship between
pulses is fixed. Specifically, the [A/4] output
will correspond to every second pulse from the
[A/2] output. Likewise, the [A/8] will
correspond to every second pulse from the [A/4]
output, and the [A/6] will correspond to every
second pulse from the [A/3] output. Needless to
say, the [A/2] and [A/3] groups are not related
to each other, or to the [A/5] or [A/7] outputs.
All however share a common external reset, so
they can be synchronized. All outputs go high on
reset.
Some ideas on how to use this
module: Feed a clock signal into the [A]
input of the pulse divider. The divided signal
is available simultaneously for each output. If
running at audio frequencies, feed some of these
to a mixer or other signal processing device. If
running at low speed, try driving two different
sequencers at the same time from different
divisions. Try feeding the [A/8] output into the
reset - this will force all to synchronize to a
[A/7] count, with the lesser divisions becoming
"syncopated"'
The CGS336 does not include the logic
section of the CGS36. In builds where you are
replacing the CGS36 and do not have an
additional 1" slot, the CGS405
Boolean Logic can be stacked
on top of the CGS336.
