ok. so i went from theoretical to reality. i built the inversion switches and module and installed it into the original sequencer (which had plenty or room in it) and tested it.. FAN*F__KING* TASTIC!
its unreal what i does. it deos exactly what the table suggested , but combined with the step length and reset and bi directional modes on the sequencer .. its craaaaaaazy. you can make the last parts of the sequence loop. have it run n complete reverse (not bi-directional) and have it it do all the nested looping in reverse and within a desired length. its ridiculous. ive only ever seen one seuqncer that will do this.. the RENEE for modular stuff. it makes a linear sequencer. non-lilnear. LOOOOOVE IT> it adds so many new variations to an allready cool sequence.
so heres where reality gets super warped. this inversion hack can be done for any module seperately within that system.. so if i have 2 channels of cv , they can have seperate inversions for each one with no real efort really other than breadboarding one 40106 hex inverter chip. (after the main buffer/inverter is made..)
so i fabricated a set of 4 inversion controls that occupy the very bottom of the new cabinet i made. one will be for this sequencer... i may do the drax version on only the one channel. or maybe one for each.. depends on my mood. since that has 2 channels of cv gate on it. or i may leave that one be since its allready a serious frankenstein creation with haphazard wiring and precarious engineering...
heres some footage of what the inversion hack does.. its driving the sequential circuts pro-one with just a single oscillator for reference.
