Signals
Each port has a type, shown by its colour.
| Type | What it carries |
|---|---|
| mono | Sound, one channel |
| stereo | Sound, left and right on one wire |
| cv | A control value (Hz, seconds, 0..1 levels) |
| gate | On / off. Triggers fire when it turns on |
| note | One pitch |
| chord | Several pitches on one wire, one per voice |
| scale | A scale, for the Quantizer and Arpeggiator |
| clip / midi | An audio clip or a MIDI file |
Mixing Types
- Mono into stereo plays on both sides
- Stereo into mono takes the left side
- A chord into a single input takes the first note
- Filters, effects and the Amplifier turn stereo when a stereo wire comes in
- Split and Merge take signals apart and put them together. They adapt to the first wire you drop on them.
Pitch
- Pitch uses 1 volt per octave: +1 = one octave up, 1/12 = one semitone
- An Oscillator in Note mode plays the note on its input
- Wire a chord into an Oscillator in Notes mode to play every note as its own voice
Tempo
- Set the graph’s tempo with BPM in the top bar
- Tempo inputs (Clock, LFO in Beats mode, sequencers) can follow it with their sync toggle
- Drive every part from one Clock so they stay in time
