5 pressure sensitive touch pads can be tuned to any scale then played and sequenced
Meet Blueberry, a small octopus who loves to sequence. Her 5 pressure sensitive touch pads can be tuned to any scale, then played to your hearts content. Blueberry pairs really well with Bib (fx) and Buzzrito (oscillator) but easily integrates into any eurorack setup by providing a gate and pitch (V/Oct) output in response to touch.
Blueberry is a very simple module to use: Just hook up her Pitch and Gate outputs to an oscillator, then jam on the 5 pads with your fingers. The pitch of each pad can be adjusted to taste, up to 5 long patterns can be recorded (and played back), and CV control is provided to transpose, clock, scrub and select which pattern is played. When clocked, blueberry becomes an unconventional step sequencer, where each note retains its original pressure articulation, but the melody only progresses at each clock trigger. By feeding voltages into the ‘scrub’ input, the play head can be directly manipulated – playing the melody backwards, forwards, even scrambled… but not fried. Each of the 5 memories saves its own tuning alongside the notes, and can be selected by the memory CV input – allowing chord selection, for example.
Blueberry is a collaboration between Alex Evans – creator of Plinky! – and Ray Yokell aka CrazyEmperor893 of The crey emporium.
