Does this type of quantizer exist?

Discussion

Hello modular hive mind. I had good results asking a similar question here about switches a year or so ago so I'm here to try my luck with a new question!

Does a eurorack module exist that will take a quantized CV input (or an unquantized input that it will then quantize) and constrain it to a specific note range such that notes 'wrap' to the appropriate note within the range rather than just stopping at the upper/lower limit? So e.g. if the range is set to 1 octave from C0 then G0, G1, G2 will all be outputted as G0.

I don't mind if it is a bit more abstract than actually defining notes/note ranges as long as the outcome is vaguely what I've described.

I've been creating a lot of patches recently where I created melodies by mashing together multiple CV sources and it would be nice to be able to easily do things like constrain a copy of the melody CV to a single octave to use for a bass part. If it doesn't exist I won't lose any sleep over it - I'm at the point with my setup that I'm basically happy with it but just thinking about useful utilities to improve my workflow.

Current setup in case anyone is interested:
