intellijel Tetrapad Multidimensional Performance Touch Controller Eurorack Module (20 HP)

Overview

Tetrapad is a versatile multidimensional touch-sensitive control surface for Eurorack. Each of its four pads use force-sensing resistors to respond to both the vertical position of your finger and its pressure. Four push encoders and a shift function give you even more tactile control over your modular system.

• Four pressure- and position-sensitive pads, each with a corresponding pressable encoder and LED.
• Eight flexible outputs and LED indicators send Pitch, Gate, or other CV signals depending on the selected mode.
• The pads can be set to function as a keyboard, a chord generator, a bank of faders, an LFO control, drum pads, switches, or can trigger a specific voltage.
• Personalize pressure response and automatically save all settings for future use.

Modes

• Tetrapad operates in numerous modes�each configures the module to perform a specific control task. Through these modes, Tetrapad becomes an 8-key keyboard, a voltage storage device, or a 4-note chord generator. In its special Combo Mode, each pad can be assigned a function independent of the other three pads, such as: a fader, a bipolar fader, an LFO, a dual switch, or a finger drumming pad. The chosen mode determines what type of signal (CV, note, trigger, gate, etc.) is sent from each of the Tetrapad�s eight independent outputs, while its multitude of multicolored LEDs keep you informed of exactly what�s happening within each mode.
• Each mode contains 12 memory slots for that mode, allowing you to instantly recall one of 12 different custom keyboards; one of 12 different voltage maps; one of 12 fader/LFO/switch combinations; etc.
• Tetrapad automatically remembers how you�ve configured each of its modes and retains these settings when powered off. By default, Tetrapad automatically saves these settings every minute, or whenever you change modes. This makes Tetrapad ideal for live performance since you know it will always power up with your configurations intact.

Optional Tête Expansion Module

Available separately, the Tête expands the Tetrapad touch surface. Capture your gestures, save them, play them back with the Tête's looper or step sequencer. Modulate your physical input with external CV from your modular, and sync all of your motions with the internal or an external clock.
