Tetrapad Manual

 

  

 

 

 

Overview 

Tetrapad is a versatile, multi-dimensional, touch-sensitive control surface for Eurorack. Each 
of its four pads use force sensing resistors to respond to both the vertical position of your 
finger and its pressure. Four push encoders and a shift function give you even more tactile 
control over your modular system. 

Tetrapad operates in numerous modes — each of which configures the module to perform a 
specific control task. Through these modes, Tetrapad becomes an 8-key keyboard; a voltage 
storage device; or a 4-note chord generator. In its special Combo Mode, each pad can be 
assigned a function independent of the other three pads, such as: a fader; a bi-polar fader; 
an LFO; a dual switch; or a finger drumming pad. The chosen mode determines what type of 
signal (CV, note, trigger, gate, etc.) is sent from each of Tetrapad’s eight independent 
outputs, while its multitude of multi-colored LEDs keep you informed of exactly what’s 
happening within each mode. 

Each mode contains 12 memory slots for that mode, allowing you to instantly recall one of 
12 different custom keyboards; one of 12 different voltage maps; one of 12 fader/LFO/switch 
combinations; etc.  

Tetrapad automatically remembers how you’ve configured each of its modes, and retains 
these settings when powered off. By default, Tetrapad automatically saves these settings 
every minute, or whenever you change modes. This makes Tetrapad ideal for live 
performance, since you know it will always power up with your configurations intact.
