Description

Two CV outputs wander together through a scale (parallel motion): you tune two oscillators by hand to set the interval and the card moves them in lockstep, clocked and quantized. X sets how often it moves (clock division when clocked, internal rate when free), Y sets how far (frozen single note up to +/- one octave). Switch DOWN (momentary) selects the scale via the Main knob; UP freezes the current pitches; MIDDLE runs. Main knob is a resonant low-pass filter processing the two oscillators returned through Audio In 1/2, out Audio Out 1/2. Pulse In 1 clocks it, Pulse In 2 re-seeds. The walk is centered high and floored so the pitch CV never goes negative.
