Some quantizers (the Doepfer a-156 for instance) output a trigger every time a note change occurs. Its really useful for creating off-the-grid (pseudo) arpeggios among other things. Use division of your main clock to trigger an (attenuated) envelope and input that into your quantizer. Based on the slope of the envelope you will get different rhythms for your arpeggios. This is the one feature I really miss about the a-156 - I used it all the time - so I could see how cool it would be on the uScale since it is more flexible than the a-156 in terms of scales etc.

I am also curious as to how this mod works, I’ve never seen it before.

Scales (successor to uScale) also addresses this and more

But like Kamil, I’m curious about the mod :slight_smile:

Yeah, this delivers nothing more than just a trigger out but that is a great thing though.
According to the person that sold this module to me, he just emailed @intellijel and asked if there was a way to let this module do this. He shipped it over to them and they did it. @intellijel told me that this was made way back in 2013.

Quick Follow-up—

I’ll be doing a Live stream on YouTube next week Thursday, 2pm Dec. 12 for the Tête Launch. Watch on our YouTube Page:

I’ll be taking questions, doing audio demos, and will talk about how the module works and the software/user interface design.

In the spirit of this thread, I’ll add this seems like a smart addition. A straight-forward implementation of 3 desirable effects; though I’m a little sad there’s no 6hp equivalent.

Also appears to be a pair of an as-yet-unannounced mono 1u VCA next to these!

!!! Literally just had the thought “it’s so strange there’s an LPG-sized hole in their lineup…”

Just got my Quadrax in the mail after agonizing for months what to buy. Can’t wait to finish my present project so I can work it into my case.

anybody else want a palette case joiner, like frap tools plus style? or maybe a double length palette?

I got mine a long time ago, but I’m really just getting to it now. The bounce mode is a bit whacky to “tune”, but if still feels like a pretty quintessential module.

Burst mode was redesigned in the v1.1 to be much more playable :). Also new, @kisielk’s LFV is a great drifting modulation source.

FWIW Intellijel is considering doing a 104hp Palette

Admittedly haven’t updated. Will need to get on that! Thanks for the reminder.

Watchng a video of that LFV mode now.

Dope.

Also, the burst mode as a kind of single channel voice is a very nice little bonus.

Mine will hopefully turn up tomorrow. I’m quite stoked! ‘Gratz on yours!

For those that have them, what’s your favorite use for Quadrax so far?

Yes!!! Me me me. I want a 104 palette.

Well, owning their old 104 hp skiff I think it’s the best on the market, maybe second after isms case (though that one seems to be a relic for a long time now). So I’m surprised they didn’t fill that hole on their case lineup yet.

My case has so many modulation sources right now, I haven’t even touched the alternate modes on my Quadrax. Good do know what I have to look forward to.
