That usage of a shift register makes a lot of sense to me. Pointed wrote:I have used Telephone Game and Quantimator and Shifty for moving pitch CVs between various outputs. Well the design of Permutation is perfect for this.

You can build a discipline around that, but you could accomplish much the same with any basic step sequencer by twisting a knob once in a while “at random”. The ability to throttle the introduction of random variation into a pattern is still a pretty limited control, and you can only “go forward”. Setting aside semi-random rhythms, I still feel that the underlying concept of these sorts of modules is intriguing, but in practice, less useful than I hoped. For similarly-derived rhythms to the TM/Pulses combo, I would expect Grayscale’s Permutation to be similar. Many of these modules you have to clock in the first place, so they actually tend to be pretty regimental. Regarding OP’s interest in “drunk clocks”, I did find the Pulses expander for the Turing Machine to produce nice rhythms, but I wouldn’t characterize them as “drunk”. I’ve owned a few of these random looping sequencers-Turing Machines I & II, Noisering, O&C and Richter Wogglebug-and I still have TM2 and O&C racked. This thread is a touch off-kilter because, in contrast to the title, what the OP seems to be inquiring about is not so much a shift register as a random looping sequencer.
