Toolbox v1.1.5 Quick Start Guide
Before You Start
A microSD card must be inserted into toolbox
before you can get started. All presets are stored
on the microSD card. Preset changes are only
saved when you choose to save them.
Overview
Toolbox offers touchscreen control of sequencers,
function generators and CV controllers that provide
CV and MIDI outputs for use in controlling other
modules. Toolbox by itself does not generate any
sound.
The Main screen shows an array of cells that can each
contain a sequencer, function generator or CV
controller. The cells of the array are mapped to the
input and output jacks below the screen. The cells in
Column 1 (on the left) show the state of the CV
Modulation Inputs. Note that CV Mod In 4 also
controls playback.
You can configure each cell in columns 2 through 5 to contain one of the following:
Start Playback of the Sequencers and Function Generators
To control playback of the sequencers and function generators:
1.
Press the
HOME
button to display the Main screen.
2.
Touch
Play
in the lower left corner of the screen to toggle playback on and off.
Note:
•
Connect the outputs of Toolbox to a module that generates sound, such as Synthbox, to hear playback.
•
You can also use CV Mod In 4 to control playback. Each high signal received on CV Mod In 4 will toggle playback on and
off.

a triangle wave, ranging from -5V to +5V.
CV Sequencer

A variable CV voltage generated by drawing a bar graph on the touch screen,
with a range of 0 to +5V.
CV Recording
(CREC)
