FranKinksTides by Tesseract - Dual tidal modulator
FranKinksTides is a 18hp dual Tides (based on the Swirls pcb layout) with the max/min circuit from Kinks and some switches for sync, quadrature, pll and FM operation . It can be a double/complex oscillator, a dual function generator or any combination of oscillator, LFO and Envelope generator with lots of cv control plus some interesting cross-modulation and sync features.
FranKinksTides is a dual digital waveform generator providing both single-shot and cyclic operation modes, and covering a very wide range of frequencies from 0.5mHz to 10kHz. As such, it can serve as an AD or AR envelope generator, a LFO, or an audio oscillator. Its unique design allows the waveform to be controlled along 3 dimensions: curvature of the rise and fall segments (shape), relative timing of the rise and fall segments (slope), and harmonic content (smoothness).
some improvements in version 1.2:
-Mix output is now buffered, no signal bleeding on single outs.
-Mix pot controls also the balance of the signals sent to the max/min circuit.
-Uni/bi switch now also determines the signal sent to FM1.
-Clock/sync switch has now a center OFF position, no need of plugging a dummy cable in the Clock1 when using Sheeps firmware to avoid ultra fast sound bank changes.
