Cerebellum Clock Divider and Logic Matrix

Biopower Audio Cerebellum

Cerebellum from Biopower audio is a logic matrix that morphs even the simplest of gate patterns into complex rhythmic structures. The top row includes two types of clock dividers, each with eight divisions of the input signal. Channels two and four use a decade counter, giving you output divisions from two to eight. Channels one and three use a ripple counter with divisions spaced at powers of two, each time doubling the divisions all the way down to only outputting a single clock output for 128 input clocks. These divisions cascade down the columns to each of the three input rows. Switches at each stage of the matrix intersections of row and column let you perform one of two logic operations on the input signal. XOR logic outputs a high signal if one or the other input is high, and low if neither or both are. AND logic on the other hand outputs a high signal when it receives a high signal at both inputs. The large illuminated buttons bypass any of the logic gates, adding tactile performative control to your gate sequencing. In All routes an input signal to all unpatched column inputs, dividing it by their column settings and comparing it to any signal present at the rows. When used with audio rate signals, Cerebellum morphs into a complex waveshaper with XOR pseudo-ring modulation, suboctave frequency divisions, and binary VCAing when paired with subaudio AND logic gates. While the Cerebellum in your head controls your cognitive and motor functions, the Cerebellum in your Eurorack case controls a plethora of logic and clock division-based sequencing.
