6HP CV randomizer and recorder
Overview
Type CV Randomized sequencer
Size 6HP Eurorack
Depth .8 Inches
Power 10-pin Eurorack
+12 mA 50 mA
-12 mA 50 mA
Mimetic sequent is a sixty-four step pitch-aware CV recorder and
randomizer with the ability to save and modify three unique patterns.
Switch between stored patterns or use the Mimetic Multium expander to
output all three patterns simultaneously in addition to four separate
randomized rhythm sources.

Summary of Contents for Noise Engineering Mimetic Sequent

  • Page 1 +12 mA 50 mA -12 mA 50 mA Mimetic sequent is a sixty-four step pitch-aware CV recorder and randomizer with the ability to save and modify three unique patterns. Switch between stored patterns or use the Mimetic Multium expander to output all three patterns simultaneously in addition to four separate randomized rhythm sources.
  • Page 2 If you would like the pattern to be shorter send the output of a clock divider to the measure input. Mimetic Sequent and Other Parameters Turn record mode off, set Mode to 5C. Connect a clock to the Beat input.
  • Page 3 CV-control other modules. Sample and Hold Mimetic Sequent can operate as a unipolar sample-and-hold by keeping it in record mode. Patch the signal you want to sample into the Record input. Send the sampling clock to the beat input. Flip the Record switch to the top position. e...
  • Page 4 Noise Engineering Mimetic Sequent 6HP CV randomizer and recorder Patch Tutorial Recording To record a sequence of CVs into the MS, plug the CV out from a CV source (for example, the Mannequins Just Friends, WMD PDO, or other source) into the MS record in.
  • Page 5 When fully CCW, the knob locks the current pattern. The angle affects both the likelihood and the method used for the randomization. This is the heart of Mimetic Sequent and is documented in more detail in the section entitled Less Random.
  • Page 6 Noise Engineering Mimetic Sequent 6HP CV randomizer and recorder Interface CV in CV input for recording voltages. Random (jack) CV control over the randomization knob. When the jack is in use the Random knob scales the voltage applied to the jack.
  • Page 7 Noise Engineering Mimetic Multium 6HP CV randomizer and recorder expander Interface Patterns allows for simultaneous output of all three pattern currently on MS Gates outputs four separate gates that are randomized using the rules and controls of MS.
  • Page 8 Randomization occurs only to the current step in the current pattern on the beat. The mode switch on Mimetic Sequent allows three different ways of randomizing. The simplest mode is 5C. This mode treats the voltages as values. When it chooses to randomize a step, it uses the random knob to...
  • Page 9: Saving To Flash

    6HP CV randomizer and recorder Saving to Flash Mimetic Sequent’s patterns are saved to flash. To reduce wear and tear on flash—as it has a finite number of uses—this only occurs when - randomization is turned off (if the random knob is fully CCW)
  • Page 10 Mimetic Sequent 6HP CV randomizer and recorder Calibration Mimetic Sequent comes pre-calibrated. If MS drifts over time, the device can be calibrated. Calibration of Mimetic Sequent requires a Mimetic Multium and an accurate voltage meter. 1. Connect a MM to MS via 10 pin ribbon 2.
