well just look at why say the normal pll can't track multiple notes-> because it is a phase comparitor , so if there are many frequencies in the input phase has no meaning really right?. what should it track? so yes if you could like prefilter the input and seect certain frequencies that are present, seperate them and feed them to separate pll voices it could work?
anyway. this is beyond what this one does so maybe a bit ot for the thread. but making musical division only is sort of trivial extension of pll, and also from designing this i also figured out a way to actually go one step further and have it more or less auto tune so you could say add midi and play a chord, then have it arpeggiate the input on the actual notes fed into it which might be fun. im imagining more a microphone being used ass that input though like singing and autotuning it with a keyboard, sot of a synth effect. again, this does not do it now. maybe we will make a super pll in teh future but it woudl probably be quite large form factor.
but ya for this one the main thing i wanted to add that i didnt see on any pll incarnation yet(although maybe it iexists somewhere) was CV control of the multiplier and divider, and then add an LFO on board. certainly not a monumental achievement but it does make the pll circuit a lot more fun.
iw ill try to make some clips on Thursday or the weekend.
