Description

4ms Controller Overview

Take control of your modular signals with the 4ms Catalyst Controller, a macro controller with eight precision CV outputs and a responsive crossfader to morph between scenes. Each scene is a snapshot of up to eight CV outputs, which can work like a modular preset. Jump to different scenes with the dedicated scene buttons or traverse a pathway composed of multiple scenes using the crossfader or an external CV signal. Record CV and slider movements, and play recordings back via a button or external trigger.

Each precision output has a maximum range of -5V to +10V. Channels have an adjustable morphing curve that can be quantized to common scales, restricted to a particular voltage range or set to output gates. Whether used as a CV preset manager, seamless transition generator, chord sequencer, CV recorder, or experimental CV playground, the Catalyst Controller puts control of your modular at your fingertips.

Details

• Smooth, responsive crossfade morphs between scenes
• Eight output channels, each can be CV or Gate
• Arrange scenes into pathways of up to 64 scenes
• Smooth, responsive crossfader morphs from scene to scene along the pathway
• Set slew/lag to limit how fast scenes can change
• Adjustable Morph time per output
• Control crossfading with an external CV
• Record and playback up to 20 seconds of CV and crossfader motion
• CV outputs can be set to -5V to +10V maximum, or limited to +/-5V, +5V, +3V, or +1V
• CV outputs can be unquantized (sub-1mV resolution), or Quantized to common scales
• Randomization of channel values/gates
• Copy/paste
• Based on the original Catalyst from Emblematic Systems

Catalyst Sequencer The Catalyst Controller can also turn into a Catalyst Sequencer. Hold down a special button combination to change between controller and sequencer modes. If you end up liking the Sequencer more, you can even remove the double-sided faceplate, flip it over, and reinstall with the Sequencer artwork visible. Eurorack Ready
