The QCD Expander from 4ms Company is an expansion module for the Quad Clock Distributor (QCD). The QCD
Expander requires the QCD to function, and adds a host of features. The Expander turns the QCD into a
programmatic non-linear sequencer, easily obtaining self-patched evolving rhythms, and swing/shuffle patterns.
Each of the four channels has:
•
Multi-mode output jack INV OUT mirrors the tempo of main QCD output
•
Mode Switch for each INV OUT jack:
◦ Delayed Trigger Mode
◦ Inverted Gate Mode
◦ Shuffle Mode (delayed + original trigger)
•
PW/Delay knob controls trigger delay time on INV OUT jack (or pulse width in Inverted Gate Mode)
◦ Also controls Pulse Width of main QCD OUT jack
◦ CV input jack for external control
◦ Attenuverter allows for one channel to precisely modulate another channel's delay or pulse width
•
Div/Mult CV attenuator knob
◦ Controls how much the signal on the main QCD's Div/Mult CV jack will modulate the tempo
◦ Useful for precisely modulating the speed of one channel with another
A global LED brightness trimpot is accessible from the front panel.
