Introduction

The Delptronics Trigger Man is a unique trigger sequencer. There are 8 trigger/gate outputs and each
pattern consists of 8 steps per output. It has 8 pattern memories, which can be played back in any order
and chained into a pattern of patters up to 100 patterns long. The revolutionary pattern editing
interface enables you to create any pattern with just two knobs.

Features

8 HP wide, 30mm deep.

8 trigger/gate outputs.

8 patterns, each consisting of 8 steps for each of the 8 outputs.

Each output has a separately configurable length: 10ms, clock, or full.
o

When set to clock, output is on when clock signal is on, and off when clock signal is off.

o

When set to full, output is on for the full length of the step, consecutive "on" steps
produce no "off" time between the steps.

Three modes of operation

Algorithmic Edit: A revolutionary pattern editing interface wherein one knob controls the
complexity of the steps (number of "on" steps and rests between the steps), and another
knob shifts the steps right and left.

••• Step Edit: A traditional mode in which each step is turned on or off individually. The shift

knob still functions in Step Edit mode.

Pattern Play: Select which pattern is currently playing, or create a chain of patterns up to
100 patterns long. The shift knob shifts the patterns in the chain.

Internal clock with tempo knob (40 - 295 BPM).

Run/Stop button controls the internal clock, or resets to the first step if using an external clock.

External clock input jack can be configured as ticks or voltage controlled tempo.
o

When set to ticks, on/off voltages advance the step counter, and the tempo knob acts as a
clock divider. External clock can be divided by 1/2/3/4/6/8/12/16/32.

o

When set to VC, a control voltage at the clock input jack determines the tempo.

Multi-function control voltage jack.
o

In pattern play mode, the control voltage determines the currently playing pattern.

o

In the edit modes, the control voltage determines the shift and/or complexity of the steps.
Each output can be individually configured as to how it responds to the control voltage, if
at all.

Non-volatile pattern and configuration memory. Data is saved even when powered off.
