plot device

Ok I forgot about this since the 4th october. Today I want to pick up where I left off and:

Next I want to add the second input and maybe the gate input too.

Its not in real time which is sad. So maybe fix this or maybe find a system that takes it into account (record and print on trigger for example).

First I'll try to make it work from before again so I have to remember for a minute. Actually for like half a day but Manetta helped, I was running the wrong arduino sketch.

The second input wasn't too hard to add. And I'm using a different plotter, I'd like a better solution for scaling the voltage output to the page size. Maybe chiplotle will let me read the document size and I can adjust according to that. Also the CV output of the synth is too big (10V I think, I cant remember. Also how does DC offset work in this case I guess the centre of the signal should be the center of the page) so it would be nice to attenuate that analog signal before it gets measured by the ESP32.

I get so many encoding errors why. Ok less now because I did try except in python. But for some reason the data for the button wont write to the variable in python why. why was this world created. why are any of us still here.

The signal is really noisey it's pretty cool though.

I wonder what the sample rate is.

I'd like to get the button working, first as a trigger and then as a gate. Then connect a jack input to use CV also.

Then I think I can play with it more, pretty soon.
