Thanks for posting this, you made me smile. The module allows musicians to convert monophonic sequences of notes into (pseudo-)polyphonic melodies with two to four voices. Functions: Clock Modulator, Multiple, Sample and Hold, Sequencer, Switch. Product information 'Intellijel Designs - Shifty' Polyphonic music made easy Shifty is a combination of four sample and hold stages, a sequential gate and a sequencer controller. The Shifty is essentially a combination of four sample and hold stages, a sequential gate and sequencer controller. Earlier photos show a Doepfer setup more or less. Intellijel Shifty 3U eurorack sequencer module. The morphing between the different patterns does indicate something other than an ASR, at least to my ears and I've had great results using Max/Min to "merge" sequences. I'm not being glib here, it has inspired two great modules and to the best of my knowledge he made the album using "classic" composition methods (ASRs are quite standard in my book if that's what he used indeed) but the result is far from being stereotypical of the modular sound. Does that make Generators the best modular album we have right now ? Funny that the O+C was inspired by Keith though, so was the Turing Machine. I read it in two places, one of which was definitely in MW when discussing the Max/Min.

which was basically just code running on an ADDAC VCC, plan B model 23s being in scarce supply back then) Shifty is a combination of four sample and hold stages, a sequential gate, and a sequencer controller. or that's what i've believed when drawing up the first versions of OC in 2010 or so.

If you have an 8 step melodic line that goes C D E F G A B C the first voice would go C G, second would go D A, third E B, fourth F C.

Each incoming gate triggers a switch to the next voice, while the last voice holds the note it played. It is a quadruple T&H so it makes your monophonic line into polyphonic line, like an ASR or whatnot.Ī pair of CV & Gate inputs, four Gate & CV outputs. With this each note can go to a different oscillator + vca pair. It's exactly how a midipal has that app where each note can be spread out to a different midi channel and therefore to a different synth voice. This collection of functions allow for some. He's a good musician but his demos don't shed much in the way of light. The Shifty is essentially a combination of four sample and hold stages, a sequential gate and sequencer controller. Perhaps when you are back and settled in from NAMM, you and the team can knock out an explanatory, non-Richard-Devine-style, demo or two. Can you give us an example at some point in time?
