Periodic clock — emits a Trig pulse at a set rate (Hz).

What it does

Periodic trigger source.

Wraps daisysp::Metro. Emits a one-sample Trig (1.0) each period; Process() is called every sample so the clock keeps time.

Parameters

  • Rate (Hz)

    freq
    Default 2Range 0.1 … 100

    How many trigger pulses are emitted per second. Musically it is tempo divided by 60 times the division you want, so 2 Hz is 120 BPM in quarter notes and 4 Hz is the same tempo in eighths. This is applied per sample, so wiring the port lets you sweep tempo continuously — including into audio rate, where the trigger stream stops reading as a clock and starts sounding like a tone.

Internal clock. 2 Hz = 120 BPM quarter-notes. Wire Trig into a drum voice or AD Envelope. Rate is per-sample (modulatable). For a divided clock, use a higher rate and a Sample & Hold.
