omnitone/rhythmi
Rhythmi
Rhythmi is a Eurorack drum sequencer that allows you to dial in your groove, and explore it by evolving the pattern and modulating the energy. It allows for rhythmic inspiration and creativity without the burden of step programming.257
Capabilities 3
- Clock Divider/Multiplierclock-divider-multiplier
- When external clock is patched in, encoder acts as clock divider/multiplier by up to ten times.257
- Clock Sourceclock-source
- Generates its own internal clock when no external clock is patched; speed set via encoder displayed on vertical LED strip.257
- Drum Sequencerdrum-sequencer
- Semi-random generative drum sequencer for up to 5 voices (kick, snare, tom, hi-hat, crash) using density, syncopation, evolve, and energy macro controls.257
Jacks 9 — 2 in / 7 out
| Name | Signal | Voltage | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inputs (2) | |||
| In | clock | — | External clock input.257 |
| Reset | trigger | — | Resets the module to the beginning of the loop.257 |
| Outputs (7) | |||
| CRASH | trigger | — | 257 |
| HI-HAT | mixed | — | Outputs gates and triggers depending on whether an open hi hat or closed hi hat is played. A trigger simulates a closed hi hat; a gate simulates an open hi hat.257 |
| KICK | trigger | — | 257 |
| Out | clock | — | Outputs the clock used by the module, including the clock dividing/multiplying and the swing.257 |
| SNARE | trigger | — | 257 |
| TOM | trigger | — | 257 |
| TOM CV | cv | — | Outputs the pitch of the tom, with v/oct tracking, quantized to a minor pentatonic scale.257 |
Parameters 10
| Name | Type | Range | Behavior |
|---|---|---|---|
| CHH | menu_setting | — | Closed hi hat voice control.257 |
| Density | knob | — | Sets the total amount of hits that occur for a particular piece given the syncopation setting.257 |
| Energy | knob | — | Macro control over kick, snare and tom densities and syncos. As energy increases, densities increase; past a threshold (cursor turns red) crash and kick trigger at the start of each loop, and synco is biased toward 50-50.257 |
| Evolve | knob | — | Encoder that explores variations of the drum pattern. Turning counter-clockwise returns to the root rhythm. Short press randomizes variations. CV randomization can be enabled; taking evolve above 75% triggers randomization via CV.257 |
| Length | knob | 2clock pulses – 32clock pulses | Sets the length of the loop from 2 to 32 clock pulses, displayed on the vertical LED strip in groups of 8.257 |
| OHH | menu_setting | — | Open hi hat voice control.257 |
| Speed | knob | — | When no external clock is patched in, sets the internal clock speed as displayed on the vertical LED strip. When an external clock is patched in, acts as a clock divider/multiplier up to ten times.257 |
| Swing | knob | 50% – 90% | Sets the placement of every second clock pulse. At minimum (50%) pulses are equally spaced (no swing); at maximum (90%) pulses are maximally delayed.257 |
| Synco | knob | — | Sets the approximate ratio of non-syncopated and syncopated hits that occur for a particular piece.257 |
| Tom Amount | knob | — | Sets the number of available pitches for the tom to play, akin to how many different tom drums the drummer has available.257 |
