So I was going to mention this in the now closed issue that led to bernoulli switch.
What about a bernoulli counter? Imagine Martin Lueder's counter, but with a random factor to it.
The counter knob will set a minimum, but the dice will determinate whether all incoming triggers will be counted. A knob will set the probability.
This could either be a switch or a gate, just like the bernoulli switch.

btw can't figure out how to label this as feature request

[phdsg]

ok, sounds interesting.
have you set this up with modules in a patch?
i'm not sure if i understand exactly what you are trying to achieve...

yeah. i think only the repo owner can label stuff.

I like randomness. I like structure. I like counter, because you can tell it to wait, let's say, 8 pulses, then a gate opens. But I would like a module that I can tell: wait at least 8 pulses, maybe more, you decide. That's where the coin decides. So it will wait at least 8 pulses, maybe 10, maybe 20, depending on the probability knob. I would use it the same way I would use yesterday's switch. I am working on a patch where I have voices come in after some time. Now, that time is fixed, but I would like some randomness. Does that make it more clear? 2018-02-15 10:44 GMT+01:00 phdsg vn chfhn <notifications@github.com>:

so, basically just a bernoulli gate module in front of a counter module like this:

[joopvdl]

yes, so maybe that wouldn't need to be a separate module even ) 2018-02-15 11:14 GMT+01:00 phdsg vn chfhn <notifications@github.com>:

might (re)look into this at a later time.
right now i'm trying to get everything ready to deploy 0.5.8.
and then i'll have to prepare the 0.5 -> 0.6 transition.
if time allows maybe some work on the AorBtoOut version of the switch.

I came up with this idea when I was lying awake last night. Seemed like a great idea at that time, didn't realise it was so easy to accomplish. If you need any help or feedback, please let me know. Best, Joop 2018-02-15 13:37 GMT+01:00 phdsg vn chfhn <notifications@github.com>:

it's not a bad idea.
and it's also not too hard to frankenstein two modules together into one.
been doing that a lot. most of the time because certain module combinations that i often use take so much time to be patched up and then fill two rows in the rack.
anyways... right now, i'd rather know if the stuff we did yesterday works as expected, doesn't crash, etc.

[joopvdl]

going to toy with the bernouilli switch now. As for he frankenstein plug: usually, i would combine a bernoulli, a switch and a slew limiter. Yesterday we combined the first two, but perhaps a slew limiter added would be a nice addition. You'll hear from me again tonight. 2018-02-15 19:47 GMT+01:00 phdsg vn chfhn <notifications@github.com>:

boy, i see a lot of overlap on module preferences :)
here's a preview of the next commit:

[joopvdl]

Yes, seems we have something in common :) I've been toying around with the modules tonight, no crashes, working as expected, apart from the probability knob, I would expect it to be the other way around. 2018-02-15 21:18 GMT+01:00 phdsg vn chfhn <notifications@github.com>:

yeah that part would be easier on a 4HP panel :)
my reasoning was: left = LO / right = HI
but i can live with either way, changing with next commit.

question: have you ever used the cv input on the audible bernoulli?
