Quadrant Modulator

Input sets the level entering the multiplier and feedback path.

Clean uses direct four-quadrant multiplication for a precise response.

Diode uses a diode-inspired model for a less exact, more circuit-like ring-modulation character.

Feedback returns the fully wet modulated signal to the input. The center position is off; left applies inverted feedback and right applies non-inverted feedback.

Dry/Wet blends the unprocessed input with the modulated signal before limiting.

Limit sets the maximum level of the tube-style soft limiter. It can also add color to a fully dry signal because it follows the mix.

Output sets final level after the limiter.

A waveform that crosses the horizon performs four-quadrant or ring modulation. Keeping the complete waveform on one side of the horizon produces amplitude modulation.

Free Run repeats the waveform continuously at the selected Rate.

SC-Pitch Follow uses a phase-locked loop to follow the pitch of the side-chain signal. Simple monophonic sources track most clearly; complex or noisy material can produce less predictable movement.

Input->SC forces pitch tracking to use the main input. This is useful in hosts that do not mirror the main input when no side-chain bus is connected.

One Shot plays one complete waveform cycle at each slot or clock trigger, then returns to zero until the next trigger.

At audio rates, One Shot creates short impulses suited to clicks-and-cuts processing. At slower rates, the waveform behaves like a single-cycle amplitude envelope.

A clock impulse retriggers One Shot even when only one slot is enabled or a slot is locked.

LFO sets a free frequency from 0.01 to 20 Hz.

Audio sets a free frequency from 1 Hz to 14 kHz.

Sync sets a DAW-clock division from 1/32 triplet to 8 bars. Each division restarts the oscillator cycle as well as setting its duration.

Quantize snaps LFO or Audio frequency to the nearest enabled note. Toggle the octave-pattern dots to build the required pitch set; the illuminated ring shows the note currently in use.

MTS-ESP tuning is applied automatically when a compatible tuning source is available.

Rate in SC-Pitch Follow becomes a pitch offset from -24 to +24 semitones. Magnetic positions make common intervals and their second-octave equivalents easier to select.

Rate Slew includes oscillator rate in slot interpolation for the active slot. Leave it unlit for immediate rate changes, or enable it only on the steps that should slide.

Quantize applies only to the rate target. Slew between quantized notes remains continuous, and Sync temporarily disables quantization.

Bézier / Node morphs between smooth Bézier curves and straight segments. Bézier shapes tend toward softer harmonic content; Node shapes can create sharper edges and richer overtones.

The midpoint influences its neighboring handles, and those handles in turn influence the outer points. This linked structure makes broad changes possible without redrawing the complete cycle.

Sine resets the active slot geometry to the initial sine-based waveform.

Random generates new waveform geometry for the active slot.

None leaves excursions outside the inner waveform boundary unrestricted.

Clip clips excursions at the boundary above and below the horizon.

Fold folds excursions back inward. The effect becomes more pronounced toward Node mode.

1-8 select a slot for editing and immediate audition when the sequencer clock is off.

Each slot stores waveform geometry, Bézier/Node position, overflow mode, free frequency, sync division, side-chain pitch offset, and Rate Slew state. Rate Mode itself is global.

Copy / Paste copies or pastes the complete active-slot state.

Holding a slot-stored button or control while sequencing writes its current state into every slot reached before release. This makes it possible to record edits across a running pattern.

Normal / Reverse / Pendulum / Skips / MyLife / Random select the order used to visit enabled slots. MyLife advances one step and then moves two steps back.

No Clk stops automatic stepping. Slots remain available for manual selection and DAW automation.

Int advances from the internal sequencer rate.

Host advances from musical divisions of the DAW clock and follows transport position.

Preset Slew sets transitions from 0 to 8 seconds with No Clk. In Int and Host modes it becomes a percentage of the current step length.

Preset Slew morphs waveform geometry, shape mode, and overflow continuously. Oscillator rate follows only on slots where Rate Slew is enabled.

Manual edits take control immediately. On release, the next slot transition begins from the value or geometry currently heard and shown.

Preset arrows step through available presets and wrap between the first and last entries.

Preset name opens the preset browser.

Name generates a preset name.

Save writes the complete state. Saving without first generating a name creates one automatically.

Factory / User / Starting Points / Favorites filter the preset browser.

Versioned Save writes a numbered copy when the current preset has changed.

Folder opens the preset directory for external renaming or deletion.

Refresh reloads externally renamed or deleted preset files.
