Tête + Tetrapad Manual
● Loopy Length ​ : If the ​ Loopy ​ feature is engaged, then a CV patched into the assigned jack will
modify the Loopy length. At 0V, Loopy is set to its minimum length. At +5V, Loopy plays at its
maximum length. Values in between scale the Loopy Length accordingly.
● Loopy Shift ​ : If the ​ Loopy ​ feature is engaged, then a CV patched into the assigned jack will
shift Loopy’s start point forward or backward. Positive voltages shift Loopy’s start point later in
the recording (wrapping around to the beginning when you shift Loopy’s start point past the
end of the recording). Negative voltages shift Loopy’s start point earlier in the recording
(wrapping around to the end when you shift Loopy’s start point past the beginning of the
recording).
● Slew ​ : CV input continuously controls the Slew rate. Positive voltages increase the slew from
its current amount. Negative voltages decrease it. Note that you cannot set slew rates less
than ‘instantaneous’ nor can you set slew rates longer than those available on Tetrapad itself.
● Slew (CLK) ​ : Similar to the ​ Slew ​ option, except CV control is not continuous. Rather, the
incoming CV is sampled by the clock (using either the internal clock or an external clock
patched into Tête’s
​ CLK ​ input), and is held until the next clock. This enables you to
synchronize slew rate changes to a clock.
● Slew (Trig) ​ : Similar to the ​ Slew ​ option, except CV control is not continuous. Rather, the
incoming CV is sampled on the leading edge of any signal patched into an input ( ​ RESET ​ or
TRIG ​ ) that’s assigned to the “ ​ Mod Trig ​ ” function in the CV Setup Menu. It is then held until the
next trigger. This enables you to synchronize slew rate changes to an external trigger source.
● Slew (Pad) ​ : Similar to the ​ Slew ​ option, except CV control is not continuous. Rather, the
incoming CV is sampled each time you touch a pad, and is held until the next touch. This
enables you to synchronize slew rate changes to touches on Tetrapad’s virtual keyboard.
● Semitone ​ : CV input shifts pitch up or down in semitones, with positive voltages increasing the
pitch and negative voltages decreasing it. CV inputs assigned to this function ignore the
corresponding attenuverter, and track 1V/oct (meaning the semitones change every .083 V).
You can use CV to raise the pitch (in semitones) as high as C5 (at which point the CV input is
ignored), or you can lower the pitch to as low as C-5. Semitone changes happen
​ before ​ any
additional octave shift or inversion. Modulation to Semitones will not be reflected on the Tête’s
display.
● Semitone (CLK) ​ : Similar to the ​ Semitone ​ option, except CV control is not continuous.
Rather, the incoming CV is sampled by the clock (using either the internal clock or an external
clock patched into Tête’s
​ CLK ​ input), and is held until the next clock. This enables you to
synchronize semitone changes to a clock.
● Semitone (TRG) ​ : Similar to the ​ Semitone ​ option, except CV control is not continuous.
Rather, the incoming CV is sampled on the leading edge of any signal patched into an input
(
​ RESET ​ or ​ TRIG ​ ) that’s assigned to the “ ​ Mod Trig ​ ” function in the CV Setup Menu. It is then
held until the next trigger. This enables you to synchronize semitone changes to an external
trigger source.
