CLOCK DRIVE SEQUENCING MODE: We can access clock drive
sequencing mode by holding shift and pressing the 5th central
channel button (labeled 42). In clock drive sequencing mode we can
patch a clock or other gate signal to the CLK input and sequence
through the channels with each clock / gate pulse. It’s important to
know that clock drive has a sub-menu that allows us to select a
sequence direction. We can access the sub-menu by holding shift,
holding the 5th central channel button (labeled 42) and then turning
the encoder knob to highlight one of the 4 sequence directions (1:
FORWARD 2: BACKWARD 3:PENDULUM 4:RANDOM)
CV + CLOCK SEQUENCING MODE: This is essentially sample and
hold in which the incoming CV can only select a new channel when a
clock pulse is received at the CLK input. To enter CV + clock
sequencing mode we can hold shift and press the 6th central channel
button (labeled 666). Now we can apply a CV source to the CV input
and a clock or gate source to the CLK input and The Cursible will
select a channel based on the voltage level of the incoming CV when
it receives a pulse at the CLK input.
PATCH EXAMPLES :
SEQUENTIAL EFFECTS MORPHING: Try patching an audio source to
the audio input and then patch each of the send and returns into
various effects modules (IE: patch send 6 to the audio input of and
effects module and then patch the output of that effect into return 6).
We can then sequence our signal through the effects modules
sequentially by holding shift and tapping the 5th central channel
button (labeled 42) to enter CLOCK DRIVE mode. Long holding shift +
the 5th central channel button will give you access to the sequencer
directions. 1 being forward, 2 being backward, 3 being pendulum and
4 being random. Now when patching a clock signal to the CLK input,
The Cursible will morph your audio signal through your effects
sequentially. Depending on the speed of your clock, you may want to
adjust the morph settings by long-holding shift and then selecting a
shorter or longer morph setting by highlighting one of the 6 presets
(1 being shortest and 6 being the longest).
PIANO CV PERFORMANCE: Tap shift once to enter piano mode then
try patching 6 CV sources (IE : LFO’s, Envelopes etc) into the 6 returns.
Patch the sum output to the FM/cutoff CV input of your favorite filter
or the 1v/o input of a VCO. Now when you press one of the central
channel buttons, you’ll be routing the corresponding CV source to
your destination.
