THE CURSIBLE IS CAPABLE OF A LOT AND FEATURES QUITE A FEW MODES OF
OPERATION THAT WE WILL LIST HERE :
PIANO MODE: Piano mode is the default mode of The Cursible. You
can access it by holding the encoder knob for 2 seconds. In Piano
mode, the channel buttons act as momentary switches that turn the
channels on while pressing and holding the buttons. This mode can be
a great performance tool for live or improvised effects, audio or CV
routing.
LATCHING MODE: in this mode, you can select which channels are
active. To do this, press SHIFT together with the 1st central channel
button (labelled 6). The selected channels are activated when their
buttons are pressed and turned off when the buttons are pressed
again. Remember - the channels you select in LATCHING mode are
also the ones that will be active in any of the following modes.
MANUAL SEQUENCING MODE: After selecting which channels are
active in LATCHING mode, we can use the MANUAL SEQUENCING
mode by holding SHIFT and pressing the 2nd central channel button
(labeled 13) to sequence through them using the encoder knob. The
highlighted channel buttons are visual indicators of where the
sequence is as you turn the encoder. (Try toggling between
INDIVIDUAL and FILL modes here by holding SHIFT and pressing the
encoder button).
CV SEQUENCING MODE: By holding SHIFT and pressing the 3rd
central channel button (labeled 21) you can enter CV SEQUENCING
MODE. You can now use a CV source (IE: LFO, CV sequencer,
envelope etc.) to choose which channels are selected with +5v being
the full span. You can use the CV attenuator to fine-tune your
incoming CV sources (Again, the sequencing modes can only access
the channels that are activated in LATCHING mode). INDIVIDUAL and
FILL modes are both available here as well so be sure to toggle
between them to see which you prefer by holding shift and pressing
the encoder.
RANDOM MANUAL SEQUENCING MODE: You can access RANDOM
MANUAL SEQUENCING MODE by holding SHIFT and pressing the 4th
central channel button (labeled 22). In this mode you can randomly
cycle through the channels by turning the encoder knob. This can be a
lot of fun to inject some chaos and unpredictability into a patch.
