Hi,
is there any way to deactivate the cv inputs in recurBOY settings? Looks to me that the cv inputs values are combined with the potentiometers values, is that true? I would like to use for the shaders manipulations just those values coming from the potentiometers.
Regards
when nothing is plugged into the cv inputs they should be reading GND, so will not change anything when using pots to set shader values.
if you look at the schematic of the recurboy you can see that the cv and pot voltages are not combined (this is done in the software)
there is a setting CV_BUTTON which changes the CV inputs to trigger the button presses instead of shader values, so turing this on will deactivate them for shader control
then if you want to turn them off completely you just need to modify the actionMap.json on your recurboy, if you change/remove the methods called 0-3 in ANALOG section this is CV inputs, (4-7 is pot inputs)
are you seeing something that makes you think the CV is reading values when unplugged? occationally there is some jitter, espically if loose solder joints around the mcp3008 ic
Thanks for your response.
When I wrote my question I actually had built a a point-to-point wiring wrapping implementation of recurboy using a perfboard and wire wrapping, without connecting the ADC pins associated to the CV, to GND or any female jack, so I was getting jitter on shaders. As you said, connecting those ADC pins (even directly) to GND, the jitter stops.
That’s why was wondering if there was an option on the settings to disable the CV input values, for people like me building a prototype without CV inputs. But yeah, definitely just connecting those ADC pins for CV to GND, cancels the jitter.
Anyway, maybe because of the point-to-point wire wrapping implementation I think I could be still getting a little bit of jitter. Is that normal? Does anyone has (good or bad) experiences using point-to-point wire wrapping implementations of projects playing shaders similar to recurboy? Should I definitely solder all my joints instead of using wire wrapping to prevent jitter completely?
If you consider this last question is not related to recurboy I can start it in a more general section in this forum.
