QSQ
Eight Channel CV Generator/Sequencer/Midi CV Interface
Features
Hardware
8 CV outputs – 0–10 V
8 Gate outputs – 0 or 5 V
17 endless rotary encoders for maximum control and playability
Clock & Start In with variable PPQN
Clock & Start Out with variable PPQN
TRS MIDI input – synchronisation and/or MIDI to CV
TRS MIDI output – for transport and clock output
TRS MIDI input and output can be individually switched between type A and B via jumpers on the rear panel.
USB MIDI to host interface for synchronisation and/or MIDI to CV interface
CV input – accepts -5 V to 5 V
26 HP
25 mm depth
Software
8 tracks, each with CV and gate pair
Parameters per track:
Swing
Clock divider (1/8, 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 2/3, 1, 4/3, 3/2, 2, 3, 4, 6 and 8)
Scale quantisation, root note and scale (various 12 TET scales and others)
Play mode (normal, reverse, random, ping pong)
Number of steps from 1-64
Kick/step shift
Transpose in semitone steps.
For each step:
Quantisable CV, can be displayed as note, cent, volt or hertz
Gate length from 0 to 64
Microtiming
Probability
Glide (stepped or continuous)
Retrigger
Additional CV modulation with
a decay envelope or
a synchronised LFO – triangle, square or ramp, adjustable rate
or VCA envelope, optimised for percussive use, hold time, decay time and change
The degree of modulation is variable
Microtiming
Pattern generation with Euclidean sequences
MIDI-to-CV interface
Each track can be a MIDI-to-CV interface.
Choose between TRS or USB MIDI input
Change the polyphony from 1 to 8 voices
The next CV output can be used for velocity.
Quantisation for scaling
Additional glide
Copy and paste steps, tracks and patterns for faster editing
Internal memory for 16 patterns
A pattern has 8 tracks
Switch between patterns without overwriting or having to save existing patterns.
Song mode
Patterns can be arranged and parameters adjusted while the song is playing.
Adjust pattern length and tempo per pattern
Save up to 16 songs
Flash memory
Up to 256 patterns, organised into 16 banks with 16 patterns each
All settings are saved automatically.
Extensive synchronisation options with other equipment
Tested with many different other devices to ensure synchronisation with other devices.
Light and dark mode
CV In
Parameters can be changed via the CV input, affected tracks can be selected.
Transpose
Retrigger
Change the tempo
Switch between any of the 16 internal patterns
Attenuate and invert the CV input
Play live and adjust your sequence.
Mute tracks
Modulation can be disabled per step by pressing a knob.
Keyboard shortcuts for quick switching between tracks and parameters
Keyboard shortcut for changing parameters for all tracks, e.g. transpose
Additional window for displaying the current status of all inputs and outputs
The firmware is updatable.
