Absolute magic. Who knew all those digital logic truth tables I had to fill out in electrical engineering courses could be useful for making beautiful music!
Just so those watching know; Submarine has a whole line of logic modules like this. If you need several of the same type of gate, Submarine's modules have multiples of the same gate on one module, each showing the schematic symbol for those gates which helps eliminate a lot of confusion. Submarine also includes a "Logic Analyzer" which is basically an oscilloscope, but it's controls and features are more useful for evaluating logic signals and their timing. Included in their logic library are a bank of Zenner diode triggers (turns on and off at a set voltage or CV level) and a bank of Op Amps that can be used in all the configurations of a real world operational amplifier. The only thing Submarine lacks is a multiplexer ("Mux") but you can build one if you know how.
I agree that submarine would be my first choice for logic too. In addition to that you can change the voltage levels for on/off. I don't know why a lot of logic modules combine a gate or trigger into 0V/5V Levels on the output. It is clearly not for use with audio as input, that way it should be -5V/+5V... and again, that is only an option on submarines modules. 5V is ok for a gate or trigger, but is not VCV-Spec. Nysthi has a Logic module too, which can be set to 0V/10V.
Thanks for another great tutorial! Been trying to get more comfortable using logic in my patches, and it's great to have some well explained, musical examples to spur the imagination.
I really gotta dig into those Instruo modules here soon. They seemed really daunting when I first looked at them but now that I know a little bit more from watching your videos I think I have a better chance of getting something cool out of them. Awesome work as always brother!
Using "unusual clocks". This is the lesson I keep needing to learn. It's not that complicated, I should just absorb it. There are many ways to accomplish it, from the simple to the complex, the intentional to the discoverative. Basically, using clock inputs, but avoiding steady pulses. Very useful in ambient style or generative approaches. Like, I totally get it, but in the chaos of patching I forget to make use of this important option. note to self.
Yeah, sometimes the text on the modules can be misleading. Just because it says Clock (or trigger, v\oct, etc.) doesn't mean we have to use a dedicated module for this. Voltage is voltage is voltage :)
I tried it once at Superbooth, yes. I would love to create something similar in VCV but it's all about the tactile experience with it so that's quite hard in VCV...

Logic is fun :)

Oh yes, they are super interesting! Cheers!
Hi Omri*another inspired patch*Love it.Amazing video art at the begining.✌
Thank you! 🤗
This is beautiful. thanks a lot!
Thank you too!
This was an amazing tutorial. Thanks 🙏
Glad you enjoyed it!
Beautiful, tnx for sharing
Cheers!
aww man, i dig this so much!
Cheers!
Very cool! Have you used logic for creating syncopated, percussive rhythms?
Thanks! Yeah, you can use logic to combine gates so you can delay one gate to get some interesting results.
Your video always very informative ! I don't understand all the logic modules ☹️ , but I progress .
Thank you!

@@OmriCohen-Music yes, now I see that using probability generators as clock sources is very satisfying :D
Have you used the SOMA Laboratory Lyra 8, and is it maybe somehow possible to make something like that in vcv rack?
I tried it once at Superbooth, yes. I would love to create something similar in VCV but it's all about the tactile experience with it so that's quite hard in VCV...
Awesome. Love the hardware examples, and the lighting. What reverb are you using in the hardware, it’s lush
Thanks so much :) I'm not using a reverb in hardware, I'm using SuperMassive in Bitwig :)
@@OmriCohen-Music mmmmmmmm Valhalla. Such amazing Reverbs.
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Thanks!
Thanks so much!
Excellent boolean tutorial for musical output
Glad you liked it
fantastic
Thanks
This is amazing. Especially trick with NOT logic to play 2 different sections.
Yeah, it's so much fun :)
crap, it took me a while to realize that VCA is actually AND logic. 😱
It's cool, right? :)
Proper
