How to use
Total patching freedom
The assembler interface allows you to connect any plugin to any other, crafting signal chains that are as unique as your playing.
Whether you’re blending effects in unconventional ways, stacking signals for complex sounds or creating multiple chains for separate instruments, this flexibility empowers you to experiment and discover without limitations.
Tempo control and sync
Host tempo and transport control. Keep players and sequencers in sync. Bind any time-dependent control, like delay times or LFO rates, to the host tempo. Choose from a range of musical dividers to align these elements rhythmically with each other. Sync to external units via MIDI or AbletonLink.
MIDI compatibility and tools
Integrate your MIDI controllers and devices seamlessly. Map MIDI controls to any plugin parameter for real-time manipulation, sync your tempo with external drum machines, or trigger synths and effects with your MIDI keyboard.
Utilize the many MIDI tools to split, filter, generate and change MIDI messages.
CV modules and control automation
Use Control Voltages (CV) to manipulate various aspects of your plugins. Create dynamic interactions between effects by routing CV signals to control parameters like filter cutoffs, modulation depths, or even amplitude levels. Whether you’re modulating a delay with an LFO or using an envelope follower to drive a distortion unit, the CV modules provide a powerful and expressive way to craft your sound and bring a modular approach to your digital environment.
