The Tetrachords module is a deep harmonic playground. It gives hands on control of up to 4 polyphonic tracks that can be harmonically linked and manipulated together in related (or unrelated) ways. With no screen and limited menu layers, the module is about learning simple gestures that take you wherever you want to go. (Harmonically speaking).

We gave @samvoltek a Tetrachords beta module very early in development because we love his music and approach to modular. We got some very valuable feedback from Sam which fed into the final production module. This video is taken a few minutes after we gave him the final production module. The only sound source is a @1010_music bit box micro which is being fed midi from the 4 tracks of the Tetrachords. Notice the nuance of the drum samples as they are reacting to the Tetrachords velocity algorithm. Tetrachords has become a favourite drum sequencer for velocity sensitive drum machines. The rhythms are being generated from the collection of 4ms clock dividers and multipliers.

Our first @superbooth_berlin done. It was an amazing time hanging out with new and old friends. It was a blast to finally get the whole of cycle instruments (Nick and Josh) in the same continent and share the Tetrachords with everyone at superbooth. We had such a good time and hope to be back again! #modular #superbooth

You can make chords on modular this easily? Let’s be real… patching chords in Eurorack isn’t exactly simple – tuning multiple oscillators – mixing voices – shaping everything with envelopes That’s where the @cycle_instruments Tetrachords comes in. It handles the harmony side, so you can focus on the sound and movement instead. More time making music, less time setting things up.

The big wheel! When you turn the main encoder on the Tetrachords what you are doing is moving your chord or pattern to a different place in the scale. Kind of like moving your hand up and down the fretboard with a bar chord held down on a guitar. What is really fun is to move between different positions in the scale, say the classic 1-5-6-4 progression, and at the same time change the colour of the chord by adding notes or moving the spread and inversion. Oops I guess you’ve just written a song… #modularsynth
