Re: TKB - how do you use it?

2009-01-02 by matthew carpenter

Hi Carlos,

Just last night I used the TKB's Row A to control the pitch of an NTO while Row B controlled the shape of the NTOs variable wave output. Rows C and D could easily be patched to control other VC inputs for additional expressiveness. This is one of the most basic ways in which I use the TKB as a sequencer.
One fun patch is:
Clock -> TKB *Clock* -> VCFQ *Trig* IN
Row A -> VCFQ *Frequency* VC IN
Row B -> VCFQ *Q* VC IN

More --
You can patch the individual Gate Outs back to the RESET IN to create sub-sequences or just a shorter sequence, for instance.

To engage the RANDOM SELECT function, you have to bridge the RANDOM SELECT input with the RESET input and patch your pulse (for timing the RANDOM SELECT) to either of those inputs.

I have some notes I'll look at later and then I may post back with anything else.

I am getting a TKB at the end of the month, and I am wondering
what/how people use it even as a regular sequencer, but also
interesting patching/programming tricks/etc. The pages I found online
seem limited. So figured I would put it out there to the group to see
what functionality and tricks I should try once is here.
