Configure Sequences
At this point, you should have your module set up and you have used the preconfigured
presets to test basic outputs. Now you are ready to start creating your own music.
With toolbox, you can choose from a selection of sequencers and function generators for
each cell to configure the module to use the combination that suits your needs. On the
Main screen, each cell shows a miniature representation of each of the sequencers and
function generators. The display varies based on the selected Cell Type. You can touch each
of the cells in the grid to access the screens used to configure them. You can use the
Control Knobs to change the currently selected cell. The current selection is highlighted in
pink. You can then press the INFO button to configure the selected cell. Each of these cells
maps to an output jack in the array of jacks below the touchscreen.
Choose a Cell Type
Toolbox creates music by generating Gate, Control Voltage (CV) and MIDI sequences that will be sent to sound
generating modules to control their playback. The 16 cells on the Main Screen allow you to configure 16 different
sequences for each Preset. The Cell Type controls the type of sequencer or function generator used to create the
signal for each cell. You can select a different Cell Type for each cell in columns 2 through 5 of the grid on the Main
screen. Some Cell Types support output to the MIDI ports. Each column of cells on the screen maps directly to the
column of output jacks above or below them. Some of the output jacks are wired to support Gate outputs, while
others support CV outputs. As a result, not all columns can fully support all Cell Types. NOTE cells can span a Gate
and a CV output to provide full Gate and CV support. The table below provides an overview of the Cell Types and
the level of support enabled when used with each output jack or jack pairing. We will go into more detail about each
Cell Type later.
Name
Description
Gate
A sequence of gate signals displayed in a
Sequencer
grid of cells where the color of the cell
(GATE)
indicates whether the signal is on or off at
that step in the sequence.
Note
A piano roll style sequence of notes
Sequencer
displayed with the keyboard running down
(NOTE)
the left side, and the sequence steps
scrolling from left to right. The Gate output is
high when a note is playing, and low when it
is not. The CV output varies based on the
pitch of the selected note.
Low
A variable control voltage generated by a
Frequency
cycling mathematical function, such as a
Oscillator
triangle wave. The voltage range is from
(LFO)
-5V to +5V.
Control
A variable CV voltage generated by drawing
Voltage
a bar graph on the touch screen. The voltage
Sequencer
range is 0V to +5V.
