MiniDiv

Introduction

I based this module on HAGIWO’s clock divider module. It’s great for rhythms.

It can also be used to add sub-octaves to audio signals. Just make sure that the mixer you’re going into is AC-coupled and buffered.

The Clock Divider prototype

I built this one as a point-to-point circuit.

Demo

Watch a demo of this on my Youtube channel!

Schematics

This is a very simple circuit. For my build, I didn’t include the Reset jack to save some space on the panel. If you do that, make sure to connect pin 11 of the CD4040 to ground.

Front Panel

I used my EuroPanelMaker module to make the front panel for this. You can find the OpenSCAD file for it in the examples section.

Conclusion

I might add a couple more features before I make an open-source PCB for this. Maybe buffers for the output as well as an internal clock mode. What do you think I should add?

Let me know if you’ve built it. Tag me on Instagram @benjiaomodular. I also have a couple of demos there!
