Maths divides an incoming clock by a ratio set by the RISE parameter of a triggered channel

Procedure L3Craft E · Modular, Eurorack, grooveboxes & dawless

Patching an external clock to Maths CH.1 or 4 Trigger IN causes the channel to generate one output pulse per N incoming clock pulses, where N is set by the RISE control (higher RISE = larger divisor). FALL adjusts the output pulse width. If the pulse width exceeds the division period, the output stays continuously high. Output is taken from EOR. This turns Maths into a VC clock divider, useful for polyrhythmic relationships or slow envelope triggers from a faster clock.

Examples

Clock → CH.1 TRIG IN. Increase RISE to set division ratio. Take EOR output. Adjust FALL for desired pulse width.

Assessment

What happens to Maths’ EOR output when the FALL time is set greater than the clock division period?
