Being a demo of the Euclidean Sequencing wonder that is the Rebel Technology Stoicheia and the weird 'additive' sequencer Tonic - two Eurorack modules that work rather acely together - with bonus explanation of what Euclidean rhythms are! Check out the modules here:

What an inspiring video! I found this by Googling "Eucliean melodies" ... after watching this I immediately set about trying to see how I could replicate it. What I ended up with is Euclidean Circles > mult > Pittsburgh Sequencer/envelope or function generator. Using another output of Euclidean circles into Branches feeds random triggers to the Hold and Reset inputs on the sequencer to add some randomness and complexity. Great fun! Thanks!

This was such a good tutorial. P.s. I'm not sure if this has been said already but "Stoicheia" in ancient greek means 'elements' or 'letters,' from putting something 'into a row'

@cheetahlion79 5 лет назад

I happen to be studying how to calculate Euclidean Distance to measure dissimilarity between two observations as part of cluster analysis in data analytics. Which is why I am procrastinating and watching modular synthesis videos on youtubes. Okay, back to the books. Always enjoy the videos Mylar.

@delta-9969 4 года назад

Is the distortion on the drums coming from just the feedback CP3 mixer?

@Tom-nm6qf 5 лет назад

I ran gate signals through my Maths using the summed output as a sequencer, and then the next day I saw a video from Superbooth previewing the Tonic. It's pretty cool, but I think I'll stick to using a mixer, as they are more multipurpose.

@quantumtheory5111 3 года назад

All of your videos are great! Would you say that owning the Euclidean Circles module and also getting the Stoicheia would be valuable? Very interested in this idea and nature of these modules and wasn’t sure if these two modules operated measurably different or could be used in a really unique ways individually for live purposes

@mylarmelodies 3 года назад

The best way to describe their differences is to do with immediacy vs amount of channels - Euclidean Circles has more channels but uses pages so it's a shade less immediate (it is a VERY friendly 'paging' system though) - whereas Stoicheia has everything immediately there on the panel, but less channels.

if I could only have one euclidean sequencer, would you recommend this or euclidean circles. For techno / electro stuff. Cheers boss!

@mylarmelodies 5 лет назад

Either this or the VPME one are the ones I've tried, both good for different reasons! The VPME has more outputs but has shared controls, this has less outputs but dedicated controls.

@DarnallDubois 5 лет назад

Might just have to go with which one looks cooler. Which one looks cooler? Haha

The CV out of the Tonic always jumps back to the base pitch. Is there any way to bypass this? would be cool it the module only outputted the voltage of the last note

@JJJJ-bs1sr 5 лет назад

Ah is ee you bypass it by not using the gate output, more or less? btw great vid man!

See latest video about Sample and hold modules for an idea on that - but use longer gates too!
