the squid can control and sync your
modular gear by the 2cv and gate outputs
making it a useful MIDI into CV gate
conversion tool C V stands for control
voltage and relates to the pitch output
in volts per octave most eurorack
responds to volts per octave but some
analog hardware such as Corgan Yamaha
devices respond to Hertz voltage it's
possible to select between the two and
the global settings it's possible to
send V trigger or s trigger gate signals
from the squid - it's important to chair
the cv input specification of the
equipment you're trying to connect to
the voltage outputs that can be selected
on the squid in the global settings
include one volt per octave 2 volts per
octave 5 volts positive and ten volts
perogative
- 5 volts positive can be used to
control the cutoff frequency the filters
or modulations you can connect the
simple sound module compatible with cv
and gate by a mono mini jack cable
otherwise known as a patch cable first
connect the gate 1 output on the rear of
the squid to the gate input on your
modular device then connect the CV 1
output on the rear of the squid to a CV
input on your modular device in this
example we'll send CV and gate
information to Senora rap modular
equipment select a track by pressing the
track button and tapping a pad next
we'll set the outputs of this track to
see the gate 1 by using the rotary
selector to scroll through to where it
says CV gate 1
it's possible to jump between different
outlet sections quickly by pressing
shift and turning the rotary selector
[Music]
there are three different gate settings
available for each CD gate track on the
squid which can be selected in the
global settings menu press the global
button and scroll to gate settings by
pushing down on the rotary selector you
can select either s trigger B trigger 5
volt or V to the 10 volts you can also
set the polarity of the gate outputs to
either positive or negative press the
global button scroll along to the cb1
range and select 5 volts next scroll
along to gate 1 mode and make sure the
trigger 10 volts is selected now press
the back button to return to the main
screen to test we're sending CV and gate
values to our modular device learn to
scale mode by pressing the scale button
now play the pads to see if you're
getting sound let's randomly generate
some triggers and pitch values to make a
pattern
we can slide between values using the CV
slide track on the squid press shift and
tire to enter CV slide note the pads
turn purple indicating that you're in CV
slide light press and pads to create
slides between notes
[Music]
with modular you can take this one step
further and applied the CV and gate to
other parameters on your setup here
we'll put cb2 into the cutoff frequency
of the filter or a modular setup
we can then use another track to
the filter and use all pattern features
to create really interesting and random
sounds pressed track and select an empty
pad
using the rotary selector changed to
cv/gate to
- five votes per octave can be used to
can
frequency of filters or modular synths
press the global button scroll along to
cv to range and select - five volts
you
now into trigger mode and create a
random pattern and random pitch now
listen how the filter cutoff changes you
can even use this with interpolation
