A manual switch module that works like one from a guitar pedal, so you can take stuff in and out of the signal path at the press of a button.
Signal IN/OUT Send/Return Trigger out when switch is enabled Trigger out when switch is disabled
We could fit 2 of them in a single unit.

Is this not very much like the 6MUTE? |

Is this not very much like the 6MUTE? No, the mute just mutes. What I'm thinking is switching between the dry signal and the signal from the send/return loop (exactly the same way you would press on the switch on a guitar pedal) |

It can but not on its own, you need a mixer after to recombine the 2 signals (dry and wet) or you would have 2 signal paths. |

that switch is bi directional so you can use 2 of the switches that you trigger together, no mixer required.

Hello there, I bought a TipTop ONE module it will 'play' anything through a micro SD card. I would be only too glad to post it to you to 'back engineer' it. Cheers |

Are there plans for something like mutable instruments ears? I know there is the recent envelope Follower module but I’m looking specifically for the function that generates *trigger* from audio as well.

Just got started with AE, on the Starter Rack 1, and having great fun, sequencing from iPad Apps, connected by the CME WIDI Jack, and powered with a ripcord attached to a usb powerbank on the living room floor.
So a wireless midi module incorporating the WIDI Core breakout board and a module incorporating either a power bank or a slot for a ‘bring your own’ LiPo battery would make it perfectly portable. With the USBPOWER module already available to power other devices, it would be an even more useful addition, with AE potentially being the power source for your portable set up.

I’ve mocked up a possible front plate design for a module to convert several midi channels to separate cvs&gates so that several Melodies could be sequenced from a daw or an external Hardware MIDI sequencer. I know Robert is hoping to take a break from designing new modules for a while so if the demand for something like this is there, maybe it could be produced by one of the amazing 3rd party makers of modules? I’m not an engineer and cannot design the electronics for it but I think many people could benefit from such a module. i Hope the intended functionality is clear from the photo, but just to be clear I‘ll explain how I imagine it would work. The upper 4 dip-switches would set a binary value to choose which midi channel should correspond to CV&Gate 1. the following three midi channels would correspond to CV&gate 2-4. for example if the dip-switches are set to midi channel 5 then ch. 5 is converted to cv&gate 1, ch. 6 to cv&gate 2 and so on. the lower 4 dip switches could set a fifth midi channel to be turned into cv&gate and fed into bus cv, gate, and ctrl. if this module were to exist, I would replace my MASTER module with a POWER module, a 4I/O Module and this one. What do you all think of this idea?  |

Add USB-C power delivery module to the list, please! I was thinking a module that could accept power from fast-charging USB-C battery packs and chargers would be really handy for powering a system portably or otherwise, like USB ports in a car, etc. It would be cool if it showed how much power it's recieving as well.

"the ENVFOLLOWER module provides a gate signal, indicating that the level of the audio input is above a certain level that can be set with the GATE THRES knob."
It wouldn't be able to, say, pick up the Bass drum pulse out of a piece of music but very few bits of kit can!

Been watching some videos about the Ciat-Lombarde Deerhorn recently. I wonder how hard it would be to make a very simple proximity-type, theremin-style sensor to create/modulate cv - to open a filter or VCA etc etc. Maybe something for the DIY forum?

LDRs or light dependant resistors are yr friend here ,, can be plugged straight into the AE sockets or a tiny breadboard.. in the words of Seve Ballesteros : “i don’t leave home without them“  |

Cat proximity alarm module. I'm actually serious. Came in the music room the other week and my cat was sitting on top of my ae and recent patch. Loads of squished and bent patch wire ends. Bloody cat!

 multifunctional module then. CV control AND cat detection
what my non-technical brain imagines is something similar to keurslagerkurt 's Great Divide resistor ladder but rather than the input voltages being patched in, they'd be generated from the response of a number of LDRs. I imagine a few scattered across a front panel, kinda like a constellation so they'd each receive subtly different amounts of light in response to movement.
Maybe one out would be a 'master' cv generated directly from just one LDR, like a fine control. All the other outs would be various stages of the resistor ladder for controllable-ish chaos.
a bit like so!

I really like the idea of a bunch of ldrs or those sharp infrared distance detectors which generate fluctuating voltages to act as modulation sources, as such this can easily be breadboarded. A nice beginner diy project.

sharp infrared distance detectors Ah, these look like the kind of things used in the Koma KommanderProbably more precise than LDRs - but precision is not always the goal |

I love the filter selection we now have in AE. I'd like to see a few more options for those of us using a more "west-coast" approach. The WAVEFOLDER is great. I use it in every patch. In order to flesh out the "west-coast" modifier options: - half-wave rectifier
- full-wave rectifier
- waveshaper
Of course we do have Kurt's wonderful DEAD BAND waveshaper, but it doesn't quite fit into what I do in more musical terms. Something like Doepfur's A-136 Distortion/Waveshaper would be perfect, especially if there was an expander module with the rectifiers. I've been trying to look up Eddy Bergman and Yusynth for some circuits to try this winter when I'm not fishing, but I haven't fond any. |

I've been trying to look up Eddy Bergman and Yusynth for some circuits to try this winter when I'm not fishing, but I haven't fond any. So I looked into this rectifier thingies and according to google:
"A full wave rectifier is defined as a type of rectifier that converts both halves of each cycle of an alternating wave (AC signal) into a pulsating DC signal."
If this is true I realized I can patch a full wave rectifier behaviour using 4COMP, 2VCA or 3 VCSWITCH, and the INV circuit from one of the modules.
Time to put on the lab coat...

Don't know if this has come up yet, but as someone who wants to play with electronics and small boards like Arduinos etc. in the context of my AE Modular, I'd love a module that was just, say, 8 knobs.
With 8 DC outputs. That I could then feed into / control the various devices / circuits I'm building.
A couple of push buttons would be useful too. But even without that, I'd definitely buy an 8-knob control module at a reasonable price. |
