BB Modules
BB modules are arranged in 10 categories: (if indicated, the module was added in that version of BB)
Macro's
Reusable modules that can contain other modules- Macro (2.0)
(the macro module itself) - Terminal In (2.0)
(to transport values to the macro) - Terminal Out (2.0)
(to transport values from the macro)
Input Devices
These are modules that accept input from Mouse and Joystick. There are five modules in this group:- Joystick Button
(to capture joystick buttons; up to 2 joysticks and 4 buttons per joystick are supported) - Joystick Position
(to capture joystick positions; two joysticks supported) - Keyboard (2.0)
(to capture keypresses) - Mouse Button
(to capture mouse button clicks) - Mouse Position
(to capture mouse movements)
Math
These are modules that are used to do calculations on values:- Bit
(for bitwise operations) - Calc
(for simple arithmetic) - Formula
(evaluate any expression) - In Scale
(test if a note is in a particular scale) - Limit
(limit values to a range) - Map
(remap values to a new range) - Random
(produce random values) - Test
(for boolean operations/comparison)
MIDI In
These are modules that accept MIDI input. There is a module for each type of MIDI input:- Channel Aftertouch In
- Controller In
- Filter In
(accept any MIDI event, with optional filter) - Gate In
(selective Note Gate) - Key aftertouch In
- Note In
- Pitch In
- Program Change In
- Voice Detect (2.2)
MIDI Out
These are modules that produce MIDI output. There is a module for each type of MIDI output- Any Event Out
(output any MIDI event) - Channel Aftertouch Out
- Controller Out
- Key Aftertouch Out
- Note Out
- NRPN - (Non)Registered Parameter Numbers (2.2)
- Pitch Out
- Program Change Out
- Sysex Out
Sequencers
These are the five sequencer modules BB provides:- Arpeggiator
(software arpeggiator) - Drummer
(polyphone sequencer) - Normal sequencer
(outputs series of notes) - Pattern sequencer
(like a normal seqencer, but with added rhythm pattern capability) - Phrase
(basic Record and Playback structure) - 4 Step (2.2)
- 8 Step (2.2)
- 16 Step (2.2)
Timed
These are modules that are controlled by a timer: every time a certain interval has elapsed, the module will produce output. The modules in this group are- BiasClock
(timer with editable steps) - Clock
(a simple timer module) - Delay
(a module that delays events) - Echo
(a module that repeats events a certain number of times) - Sweep
(like Wave, but one-shot) - Quantize
(quantize a time value to a beat, measure etc) - Wave
(a module that continuously generates events shaped to a wave form)
Flow Control
Modules that control where events are going to.- Follow
(create sequences of tunings, scales, keys and chords) - Frequency Divider (2.0)
(outputs an event every n th time) - Launch
(launch other modules with pushbuttons) - Loop
(counter) - Matrix4x4 (2.2)
Flexible router with 4 inputs and 4 outputs - Router2 (2.2)
Two inputs, with control to select which one to send to output - Splitter (2.0)
(sends values to one of two outputs depending on split value) - Switch
(works like the switch/case statement of programming languages: if a value is in range ... then do this; if the value is in range ... then do that, etc. 4 ranges per module) - 4 Out (2.2)
- 8 Out (2.2)
- 16 Out (2.2)
Controls
Modules that appear in the control panel- Control (2.2)
(knob, slider, meter, button,..) - Selector (2.2)
(list selector)
Other
These are modules that do not fit in one of the other categories- Accu (2.0)
(accumulates and distributes values) - All Notes Off (2.2)
- Chord
(create piano or guitar style chords) - Filter (2.2)
- Info (2.2)
Various system info parameters - MIDI File player (2.2)
- On SnapShot (2.2)
- On Start (2.2)
- Scale
(scale notes to a scale/key combination) - Set Snapshot (2.2)
- Slider
(simple control to set other values with) - Tempo
(change tempo) - Text
(module that can provide information. It can also be used as a tutorial module) - Timedif
(module that measures interval between events)
