sounds great! might try and fit one into my 104hp case…

well i definitely need another module with 20+ connections so

Genius method of making a kind of multiple vactrol thing there!

I had a ton of fun with Flip Flop Chaos: https://nonlinearcircuits.blogspot.com/2014/10/ff-chaos.html

I sold it but thinking of getting it back, such a fun and deep module.

That looks neat, but the demo video is terrible. Do you know of any videos that show the character of the output?

if i had $1 for every time i said/thought this i’d have already ordered that Lets Splosh

hahaha… :rofl:

Yeah, I dunno. Some of the videos are very insightful? It’s funny how hit or miss they can be.

It’s always better if the dog is in them.

At one point I made an NLC tribute video!

I don’t know of any video but I can describe it’s features as follows:

• CV input - which shifts the output between periodic and chaotic behaviour.
• Gate input - to sync to other clock / lfo module
• 2xCV Output - one spits quick snappy cv, second cv out is slower bit more mellow but still wide range
• 3x Gate Output
• 1x Trigger Output

How would you compare the CV output to say the Sloth circuits?

I’m mostly interested in the gate timings. How do the knobs effect the gates? What’s the character of the relationship between the gates? Seems easier to hear than describe, hence my video desire.

Like I said in original comment, I don’t have it anymore and it’s been a while, so cannot really help you here.
As for the comparison to Sloth, id’s say CVs were shorter and more “aggressive” than on Sloth - if that makes sense.

I rock one FF CHAOS in my rack and now I will describe the FF CHAOS.

The CV output sends out half swirls which move quickly in a spiraling motion away from the center. I cannot discern how the CV input works on the CV outputs but I would guess the CV outputs try to follow the input. The outputs are less severe than a Mobenthey Fourses but more severe than a lazy Wogglebug.

The “rate” knob controls the rate of the gates, fast and slow. The gates pop on when someone has a gate stuck in the “gate in” jack. Honestly, the gate outputs seem to chase one another and sometimes catch one another. You can get a regular pattern by sending regular gates. Sending irregular gates causes less rational patterns. It sounds like free jazz drums to me because I send my gates to drum modules.

I do not know what the CV knob does. Maybe it attenuates the incoming CV. I do not know. I do not understand the trigger output except to say it definitely spits out triggers sometimes.

Because this description contains very little information, I vow to record a short video of the FF CHAOS in action over the week end.

FF CHAOS fed by a 4/4 120 bpm pulse. (Did this link work? I don’t know what I’m doing.)

Yeah, it worked! :grin: If it’s not too much trouble, would you mind hooking those gates to sound sources? I can kinda make sense of the lights, but some kind of sound would be a good point of reference.

That one’s not working for some reason? :thinking:
