Features

Similar to Mutable Instruments Branches
- Dual Bernoulli Gate
Differences vs Branches
- Only has 1 GATE input
- No push buttons
- 0-5V input/outputs
Built on ER-PROTO-02
Arduino Pro Mini
Protection on all external jacks with Schottky diode clamps
10-pin Eurorack power
- Uses +12V only

Operation

Receives single Gate on J1
RV1 controls OUT 1
RV2 controls OUT 2
RV3 is mode for OUT 1
RV4 is mode for OUT 2

Arduino Pro Mini

Works with ATMega168 (or 328)
Program from FTDI

Arduino Pins

Controls

RV1 - Probabilistic ratio for Output 1
- Center = 50-50, CCW = Out1A on 100%, CW = 0% on OUT1B
- Inserting J3 jack disables RV1
RV2 - Probabilistic ratio for Output 2
- Center = 50-50, CCW = Out1A on 100%, CW = 0% on OUT1B
- Inserting J3 jack disables RV1
RV3 - OUT 1 Mode
- 7-12 o'clock = Normal Mode drives only OUT1A or OUT1B
- 12-5 o'clock = Drives both OUT1A and OUT1B
RV4 - OUT 2 Mode
- 7-12 o'clock = Normal Mode drives only OU21A or OUT2B
- 12-5 o'clock = Drives both OUT2A and OUT2B

Jacks

J1 - Gate

0.6V threshold GATE input

J2 - OUT1 Random %

0-5V control input
Inserting jack disables RV1
0V = 100% on OUT1A, 2.5V = 50% on OUT1A/OUT1B, 5V = 100% on OUT1B

J3 - Out1A

Gate output 1
0-5V digital output

J4 - Out1B

Gate output 1
0-5V digital output

J5 - Out2A

Gate output 2
0-5V digital output

J6 - Out2B

Gate output 2
0-5V digital output

Pot/GATEs Test

Pot/GATEs Test code GitHub
Used for testing the hardware works
Reads (4) pots and prints values to monitor, write values to serial
Toggles GATE outs - one at a time
Tests RV1/J2 loopback

Simplest Version 1

Simplest Version 1 code GitHub
2 pots, one for OUT1A/B, other for OUT2A/2B

Still pretty simple - Version 2

Still pretty simple - Version 2 code GitHub
- Adds (2) mode control knobs
- 7 o-clock = 12 o'clock = Normal mode
- 12 o-clock - 5 o=clock = Send Outputs on both OUTxA and OUTxB
Measured GATE in to OUT latency < 20uS using digitalRead and digitalWrite
- Improved by accessing the ports directly
  - Measured at 2 uS

Sketch uses 1990 bytes (13%) of program storage space. Maximum is 14336 bytes.
Global variables use 13 bytes (1%) of dynamic memory, leaving 1011 bytes for local variables. Maximum is 1024 bytes.

More modes - Version 3

More modes - Version 3 code GitHub
- Modes set by RV3, RV4

Modes	RV3	Dependency	RV4	Dependency	Operation
000	7-12	OUT1/OUT2 independent	7-9	OUT1/OUT2 independent	Normal, coin toss one of OUTxA, OUTxB
001	7-12	OUT1/OUT2 independent	9-12	OUT1/OUT2 independent	Coin toss determines OUTxA, OUTxB independently
010	7-12	OUT1/OUT2 independent	12-3	OUT1/OUT2 independent	Ping pong A/B
011	7-12	OUT1/OUT2 independent	3-5	OUT1/OUT2 independent	Coin toss both on
100	12-5	OUT1/OUT2 dependent	7-9	OUT1/OUT2 dependent	Normal, coin toss one of OUT1A, OUT1B, OUT2A, OUT2B
101	12-5	OUT1/OUT2 dependent	9-12	OUT1/OUT2 dependent	Coin toss determines OUTxA, OUTxB dependently
110	12-5	OUT1/OUT2 dependent	12-3	OUT1/OUT2 dependent	Sequential OUT1A, OUT1B, OUT2A, OUT2B
111	12-5	OUT1/OUT2 dependent	3-5	OUT1/OUT2 dependent	All on
