Really excited to see the expander! Any hints on the hp? As if I need to spend more time on Modulargridā€¦ha

Are there many Tetrapad players here? Iā€™ve got one arriving next week (Australian customs permitting :confused:) Iā€™m interested to hear what people are using it for most. Iā€™m mainly looking as the 8part patch memory, voltage storage and perhaps some percussive stuff.

This is amazing, Iā€™ll be rocking TT, Tetrapad, TXI, Ansible, ER-301 in a live case.
So any integration will be super cool

@kisielk I just bought a Planar 2. Do you think there might be plans to have i2c communication with teletype?

#49

It would certainly be possible. I am hoping to do the same for Tetrapad as well. I was hoping it would be done earlier in the year but other developments took place and weā€™re still nailing down the I2C API for the Tetrapad, so the Teletype implementation hasnā€™t happened yet.

For Planar 2 the module is a lot simpler (you donā€™t have a whole ton of LEDs to deal with in addition to sensors etc) so it would actually be a lot easier to implement an I2C interface for it. The header on the back is for this purposeā€¦

Fantastic and congratulations on this fine module.

@kiseilk curious if thereā€™s been any progress on the tetrapad expander? or plans for 2019. thanks!

#52

It will be revealed at Synthplex :slight_smile:

Hereā€™s a demo that Perfect Circuit audio filmed at the show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9dHn6niPXWA&t=0s

It was great to have @bpcmusic come by and finally meet in person too!

So great to meet you in person!! Really enjoyed our chat. :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

It was nice to see the awesome new expander in person and get a demo. It really opens up the already powerful Tetrapad and is clearly a strong-buy for anyone with one. The new cases are great too. :slight_smile:

Cheers!!

Going way back hereā€¦ wish that Chris hadnā€™t decided that eurorack hardware was too much of a headache, that sampler was a cool prototype and his interface designs are ace.

That was the Enso module prototype right? Yes, I too wish that had made it to production.

#58

I was wondering if @kisielk could let us know if the Tete module will be able to control 2 Tetrapads? 48 HP of control would cover almost all my needs.

#59

It would be great to know if this will or will not be possible. Iā€™m ready to buyā€¦

#60

Bump! Any word on an expander or otherwise?

#61

Well the expander for the Tetrapad is here, the TĆŖte. https://intellijel.com/shop/eurorack/tete/

@lloydcole: As for 2 Tetrapads, itā€™s technically possible, we are considering the UI implications, so can not confirm right now.

Ah! Thanks, missed that, looks like a lot of fun.

I was still hoping for i2c implementation though.

#63

I read a while back that the Tete and Tetrapad will somehow integrate with some of the monome universe, but after extensive googling thereā€™s very little to be found on this. Iā€™d love to find out more about this.

Which specific monome devices can I use with my Tete / Tetrapad?
Is there software / apps available at the moment that work with them and monome devices?
What sort of thing could I do for example?

#64

At present, none. I donā€™t believe the protocol details have been published, so someone would have to reverse engineer how it works by monitoring the I2C communication between Tete and Tetrapad. If the message formats become documented Iā€™m sure someone with the relevant devices will add support to crow, Teletype, or other modules.

The most comprehensive reference for what devices are supported by monomer modules is probably their source code, for instance crowā€™s i2c descriptor files or Teletypeā€™s op code. There is also generated documentation for these but the code is a useful way to see whatā€™s available at a glance.
