SDK noob question :) synced delay.

[Neutron]

I was investigating the device i made some time ago called "sonic attack" because i need to make a delay whose length is based on the MIDI clock.

unfortunately i noticed that the one in sonic attack one is quite a bit off. (which would also be fixed when i find out the proper way to do it)

It is for a thing sort of like like access virus "atomizer" live glitcher which is almost done apart from that bit, its just off enough to be annoying.

I am taking the output freq from the midi clock and it gos through a divider, then a math thing (which is where it gets wrong) then in to the delay time.

If anyone can help me to not reinvent the wheel i would be grateful. there might even be a moduule i dont know (or forgot) about.

B.t.w. a bit offtopic: I just remembered an idea I had a week ago: It should be easy to build a tap-tempo-delay like the ones in Line6 Pod etc. A button, to tap in the tempo of the delay... That would be a very similar algo to the frequency detection... Maybe an automatic tempo-recognizer for electronic music would be easily possible too....

very cool, i dreamed of sth like that for our plattform when they showed it at namm... i can't help you though, sorry. i've no sdk. cheers pling

ps: sonic attack didn't work on sfp 4.5, when i tried...

Hi,

Some information before the link :

1) I have no idea, if this is what you're looking for
2) It hasn't been tested
3) It's far from optimized
4) Its not sync
5) If you just need to use MIDI clock to determine the delay - then there're alot of other solutions that are way faster and simpler
6) Its just something........ I dont know

But any way - it translate a arbitrary frequency to a delay value in samples - taking ULLI and sample rate into account. More information - look inside the module.

thanks warp69, ill have a look at that!

it seems to be a good start for me, thank you. unfortunately just when i was testing it out i had a bad catastrophe with my computer (not scope cards thank goodness)

soon i will know exactly how atomizer works.
