Hi all,
I know these are probably getting a bit cliche but I have another RE in the MODRACK range close to release stage if anyone would like to beta test.
It is an 8 step CV sequencer based on the VCV Rack module by BOGAUDIO (with Matt's permission) called "ADDR-SEQ"

Here are the screenshots

Here is a video of it being used with some other MODRACK REs and a CV generator by Aftermath Audio to do some level shifting.
It is a lame attempt at a modular synth loop from Pink Floyd's "On the Run"


PM me if interested.

Cliche? No way. I think we all love your Modrack REs, Murf. This one looks pretty tasty. I'd be happy to try and break it for you.

Haha I guess it is all about what genres of music we are into or grew up with!

Here is what I was trying to emulate:

Hi Murf

That´s a great idea converting VCV Rack modules to RE like sequencers, clock div/mult devices and other cv/gate manipulators!
Bogaudio is a great collection like Count Modula and many others.

Let me ask you if is possible to add a cv input per step like Befaco Muxlicer?

Thank you for your time

you can use the combinator to automate the value of each step by cv input

I definitely will be doing more, but the driver for these is "what do I need to do that VCV patch.." :)

That´s amazing :clap:
I use Reason more as a modular environment than as a typical DAW.
and i believe bringing modular modules like VCV is to push Reason to a new level and open a new world of possibilities.
Reason is a great DAW and very unique with an original personality, so i hope devs in a future bring more modular devices like clock modulators, sequencers, etc...
But that´s just my opinion and personal point of view.

Thank you Murf for your time, efforts and vision.
All the best

I sent this to Murf and we decided to post it publicly, here, for input from the RT community.

If I hook up the clock CV in to an LFO, it moves through the steps, as expected. But it seems to get a bit off track/misaligned when I unhook the CV, sometimes the LED indicator light appears to be on the wrong step when manually moving through the steps with the Select knob. The only way to reset it is seems to be to turn the Step knob down to 1.

You can see in the video, at 32 seconds, when the CV is unhooked and the Select knob is turned up to 8, the LED is lighting up step 6 (instead of 8). When the knob is turned to 1, the LED lights up for step 7 (instead of 1). Seems like the device should reset after the CV is unhooked.

What do you fine forum users think? Should the device automatically reset when the CV is removed?

If the power (CV) is unplugged, it must fall down to a value without the CV signal IMO. It is a hidden change.

Problematic with trigger signals, since the trigger changes states and t the state is already reached.

So, both POV might be ok. Having the CV value as offset or as trigger.

For simplicity and UI alignment and easy understanding I like the offset thing more. A clear UI thing can help here if trigger is preferred, like a Step/Trigger button instead a Position knob.

I will reset after CV is unplugged and see how that goes

What do you think about adding a randomize button to this SEQ?

I'm also wondering if adding some type of play function is something you might consider? I get that it can be done via CV input on the back, and this is meant to be more of a modular design, but it might be nice to have something like a sequencer play function (with resolution knob?) onboard.

Nice suggestions thanks :) but... being a free MODRACK module that is based on someone else's VCV rack module I dont really want to stray from their implementation too far. Not ruling them out.. but we will see.
I have added them to my road map anyway :)

I am currently trying to add some chaining ability and am close to abandoning it for this reason :(

That's all good, I understand. I would guess that anyone using the Murf devices isn't a stranger to the back of the rack.

Can you drive it with an lfo? Cause that would be cool. cause then you could modulate the lfo

Yep! That video I posted has an LFO into the SEQ clock CV IN

Dumb question, but will it respond like the way voltage responds to different waves? like ramp vs square?

Not a dumb question at all!
The answer is no, it is just a clock input set to trigger at a certain threshold.
No matter what the wave type, once it transitions from below the threshold voltage to above it, the clock will trigger.
In this case it is 0.5

I have released 1.0.1b2 for final testing.
I added a Uni/bipolar switch for the output CV
