Okay, I’ll have one as well. It would be SO nice to be able to shift the bars in Autobreak left right. Because the process - and I’m pretty sure it’s not just me - is to draw whatever bars, adjust them, carve a cool beat only to then have it start at position 13. 7. 10. And it’s a real pain to fix that manually. And then … to be able to shift via CV, individually, for all the modifiers. The sample, the ratcheting, the volume.

One Rec - concept by Jue The One Rec module is an additional module to the One Zero and the One Point modules, while this are only players the One Rec module is a recorder also. With this module you could record gates or cv signals from conventional sequencers and automatically write them down in a simple text file. On top of the module you got inputs for the clock and the reset signal, the module goes forward by the incoming clock step by step. The reset forces the module to its start state and also stops any recording without saving the resulting text file. The input works with Gate or CV signals within a range from -10v to 10v. Below there are two radio buttons to select what kind of text file you want to record. Gate Rec results in a text file for the One Zero just with 1 or 0 only, while the Cv Rec selection results in a text file for the One Point module with a range from -10v to 10v. If you need to record the Gate and the CV signals from a performance just use two One Rec modules. Below this record selector you will find the REC / Play section were you could start recording by pressing the REC button and stop the recording by pressing the Play button. For some more automatic handling there are two inputs for gate signals to select REC or Play. When you start recording the next clock signal forces the module to measure and hold the input signal like a simple S&H , writes this step value to the text file and waits for the next clock to repeat the step and so on. When set to GATE REC writes a 0 while the signal is in the range from 4.99 v to -10v and a 1 while in the range 5v to 10v. When set to CV REC it writes the value within a range from -10v to 10v. When you hit play the module writes a text file to a destination folder, that could been set from a menu option, and starts to play this file in a loop as long as the clock is running. To avoid to overwrite an existing file each time a new text file is written a new name is generated. If you want to play the new recording from the beginning just send a reset signal and the module jumps to the beginning and plays from there with the next clock signal. At the lower end there are the output jacks for the EOL and the OUT. Just an Idea

Would you consider saving/loading the data in the JSON as a feature request? I don’t understand why it would be tricky, because naively, I would think every time you load a text file, you have all the data in memory anyway. Then you could overload Module::dataToJson() to return something like {"sequences": [ [8.3, -5.2, 4.7, 0.1], [2.2, 3.4, -1.4, 0.3], [0.8, 1.1, -1.2, -3.3] ] } Also overload Module::dataFromJson() to decode the supplied json and put it into your in-memory data structure the same way you do when you load a text file. People are still able to load text files any time they want to replace whatever is in memory. Plus, the next time you load a patch, it still has whatever you last loaded.

Would be cool to have a probability for ratcheting and looping. In Autobreak it would be nice to have a way to sometimes interrupt the internal sequencer with the external signals. Without any external signals it could be just probability of a step, cause the external input sends 0. For groovebox I am not sure... There are lot of effects and I think if it was real, it would be like a mad pasta universe inside, haha. But let's concentrate on loop and ratchet. Which is the same for me, cause I use it for a similar effect most of the times. I like having them both though. So maybe you might want to include a CV input in the extension module, and it would determine if loop\ratchet is applied for a step?

Hi Bret, Please, is it possible to reduce the trigger voltage to +5V (instead of +10V, actually), for clock input, in future plugin release? (+10V is too high, in my opinion, +5V seems a good compromise). Many thanks in advance. See: https://community.vcvrack.com/t/announcing-major-voxglitch-groovebox-update/18818/25?u=clone45

EOC output for Groovebox would be really cool. To automatically sync it with Autobreak or sequencers when working with patterns of different lengths… Or to send a trigger to change a memory slot

Hey Bret./ I notice that in the pop-up menu I miss the possibilty to Copy all settings of the paramaters from a certain channel. I can clear, and set all knobs to a certain value, but it would be really handy to copy all settings of the Parameter Locks in one go to another channel. So copy all steps and copy all steps including Param Locks would be awesome.

I'd like to be able to "jump" from a step to another step like the Doepfer Dark time. Indtend to use midi mapping for live performances please see the dark time manual page 9 for a indepth description of their "jump" funtion. https://doepfer.de/pdf/Dark_Time_Manual.pdf Maybe this has to be done using a seperate expander, to be able to midi-map. https://community.vcvrack.com/t/voxglitch-community-feedback/14290/461
