These each follow different digital algorithms generating a different flavor of chaos. In each of these modes, it is possible to set the following parameters with the knobs:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeed: How fast the output CV moves. Can be controlled with CV input.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTexture: How sudden the changes in CV happen. Low texture leads to smooth curves, high texture gives more spikes\/jitters. Can be controlled with CV input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLevel: a simple attenuator to set the output CV level.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere is also a fourth, more classic mode, that is the saw\/triangle LFO. Here the controls are basically the same, except for the 'Texture' knob, which morphs the LFO from a descending sawtooth to a triangle to an ascending sawtooth wave.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTo switch between the three different chaos algorithms and the LFO algorithm, there is a 'MODE' button.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003egive me more details!!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis module is an adaptation (with permission) from the open source Eurorack module Drift by Free Modular. It uses three different digital algorithms to generate ever changing, never repeating, chaotic patterns.

Here I explain them in short.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerlin: based on an algorithm by Ken Perlin, it generates a very smooth but organic unpredictable curve, not unlike a landscape of rolling hills. The texture controls blends in high frequency noise that creates a more 'squiggly' landscape.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBezier: random points are generated and the texture determines how 'smooth' the CV shifts between these random points. Going from completely smooth gaussian curves to sharp and pointy transitions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrownian motion: also known as random walk, at each timestep, the CV can either randomly go one tick up or down. With texture fully up, this creates a very stepped motion, with texture all the way down, all sudden changes get smoothed out.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA quite simple, but honestly very effective module! It is especially fun to patch another slow CV source like 2SLOTH to morph both the 'Speed' and 'Texture' parameter of this module, to create slowly morphing generative patches. It is also great to have a subtle splash of chaos into your filter cutoffs or wavefolders, livening up the sound to something more alive and always slightly different.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePLEASE NOTE: THIS IS AE MODULAR FORMAT\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Noisebug","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49051146617002,"sku":null,"price":119.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0020\/5199\/7743\/files\/bf24-2.jpg?v=1786751283","url":"https:\/\/www.noisebug.net\/products\/bf-synths-bf-24-drift-ae-modular","provider":"Noisebug","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
