Maximum versatility meets real-time control... from your iPad!
The Tetra Midi Analog Performance Sequencer (TetraMAPS) vastly improves on the first 'MAPS' core design. Expect to use a sequencer that is more robust, versatile, and intuitive. Tetra MAPS gives you infinite virtual tracks, modulations and multiple, real-time versions of each sequence, over-lapping polyphonic step durations, four channels of CV output, Ethernet Open Sound Control and over 24,000 notes organized as:
- 16 Sets
- of 24 Bank Tracks
- of 8 Sequences
- of 8 Steps
- of 7 Parameters
- and Multiple Virtual Sequences
- Per-Step Note, Pitch, Velocity, Controller
- Per-Step Duration and Note Duration
- Per-Step Glide/Slew Rate
- Plus a Full-Featured Four Channel Polyphonic MIDI to CV Converter
- and Ethernet Open Sound Control (OSC) Communications
Real-time Interface / Real-time Flexibility
- Continuous turn "encoder" knobs and LCD display for instantaneous access to any parameter
- Displays step parameters using bar graphics, octaves, en-harmonics, or numbers
- Perform from the sequencer pressing the encoder knobs to trigger sequences or...
- Perform the sequencer remotely using MIDI or Ethernet OSC
Some of TETRA MAPS Version 3.1 Features
- OSC LAN Open Sound Control Networking
- Now communicates with OSC-enabled applications such as MAX/MSP, Lemur, iPhone/iPad TouchOSC
- More sequences - over 24,000 note capacity
- New Track View includes:
- Volume - control sequence volumes like a sound mixer
- Mute on/off individual sequence tracks
- Single knob modulation of sequence tracks
- Meta-link - easily links sequences into long tracks
- Polyphonic MIDI record
- Sequence track and bank Stop and other short-cut key combinations
- Plus 4 Channels of Control Voltage Output
- Available in multiple rack formats
Sequence Step Matrix - Move beyond a simple MIDI Tracker
- Real-time sequence step modes: note, scale, detune, velocity, controller, step duration, note duration, slew rate
- Force step note to one of 50 musical scales
- Step notes are tuneable to 1/64th semitone 'un-quantized' resolution
- Sequences output MIDI controller numbers 0 to 99
- Per-step glide or slew rate for MIDI pitch-bend slew or portamento output
- Sequence Loop and Link for long patterns up to 1536 steps and multiple instances thereof
- Sequencer cross-modulation: A sequence may modulate another sequence's pitch, velocity, controller and event times Modulation routes by channel allow additive, global and recursive sequence modulation
- Random step advance and pendulum modes
- Per-bank and global BPM tempos
- 32 channel MIDI output
- Control Voltage modulation input for sequence transposition, velocity or step time
Variable Event Times and Durations
Move beyond the traditional Analog Sequencer
- Per-step step and note durations: Note off and step skip to 64th to dotted whole note durations
- Ability to create polyphonic sequences with any combination of chord and single note
- Sync triggers to beat or free-time, independent to each sequence
- Bar Sync syncs sequence loop to bar length, independent to each sequence
- Poly-rhythms are easily generated with Bar Sync
- Step fractional time-shift modulation via sequence modulator or CV input
- Programable external clock sources and timing resolution
Dynamic Sequence Triggering makes this the Performance Sequencer
- Concurrent triggering of each bank group of 8 sequences, with multiple virtual sequence iterations
- Additive or global sequence modulation
- Recursive sequence modulation
- Sequencer trigger sources:
- Sequences are panel key assignable and MIDI channel or note assignable. Sequence iterations track MIDI trigger note, velocity, note duration, and note instances
- Triggers sync to beat or free-time; create MIDI echo
- Sequencer trigger modes:
- Multiple: Sequences follow all trigger instances
- Single: Sequence follows monophonic trigger
- Duration Follow: Sequence note duration follows trigger duration
- Loop Hold: Sequence loops while trigger is held
- Run/Stop: Trigger play; trigger stop
- Seq Reset: Trigger play; trigger reset sequence
- Release: Trigger sequence_n; sequence_n+1 on trigger release
- Step Play: Trigger plays the next successive step
- Step Record: Trigger sets step value
- Step Randomize: Trigger sets random step values
