Picture 5: Patch Example - Crossmodulation

Clock yourself

fourMulator offers the possibility to enter the clock tempo using the TAP
button. However, continuous tempo changes using a control are still pos-
sible. To do so, simply connect the TRIGGER output of a modulator to
CLK IN. Now, the modulator serves as clock-reference where the speed
can be manually controlled using the corresponding SPEED knob. An
interesting option: The speed can be specifically modulated using the CV
input. Obviously, you may use another modulator to do so. However,
multiple CV-sources can serve for this application, such as Theremin
antennas, step-sequencers, envelopes etc.

Where to send the trigger-sequence?

The trigger-sequence is a unique feature of the fourMulator. But what is
it good for?

A simple application would be triggering a filter envelope, which no
longer triggered by keystrokes but with a certain rhythm.

Apart from that, the trigger-sequence can control all kinds of logic mod-
ules. Anywhere a straight clock-signal can be used, the trigger-sequence
can apply a rhythmic sequence of impulses to expand the receiving mod-
ules' possibilities.

Instead of patch examples, here is a list of modules that may be used
meaningful in combination with fourMulator:

• 4ms Pedals: Rotating Clock Divider, Shuffling Clock Multiplier

• Analogue Systems: RS150 Sequential Switch
