Trinket-6, an organismic MIDI sequencer inspired by Soma Ornament-8

I’ve created a generative MIDI sequencer inspired by the Soma Ornament-8. I’m really pleased with this one. Each of the 6 tracks has an independent clock which can trigger or be triggered by any other track. Complex rhythms and melodies ensue!

When a track is triggered it fires a note and starts a timer (it is ‘active’). When the timer reaches 0 it goes ‘inactive’ and triggers any tracks connected to it via the trigger matrix.

If a track receives a trigger while it’s active its timer (and therefore active state) is unaffected but it ‘passes’ the trigger to any tracks connected to it via the pass matrix.

A tracks timer also acts as a modulation ramp, affecting the timer of any track connected to it via the CV matrix. It can also send a MIDI CC ramp.
