MUSICAL FEATURES

 Voltera is a gate sequencerMetronThis is an expander module that can add a 4-channel CV track to the. You can connect 16 Volteras to a single Metron, so you can add up to 64 tracks of CV channels. Voltage range and quantization can be set for each track, so four completely different parameters can be controlled with one Voltera.
 
  • 4 HP 4 track CV output. Bipolar output is also possible.
  • Intuitive programming using Metron is possible
  • Up to 16 Volteras can be connected to one Metron
  • Voltage range can be set for each track
  • Analog style programming
  • Digital precision
  • Voltage can be recorded for each step
 Connect the cable between Voltera and Metron with the red stripe aligned with the dots on the board. The second and subsequent Voltera daisy chain to the previous Voltera or daisy chain from another connector on Metron. When not in use, always put the terminator jumper on the Voltera connection pin connector in the direction that the dots match.

HOW TO USE

Sequence settings

To set the voltage of a step that is Voltera, turn the Voltera knob while pressing the button of the step you want to set on Metron. There is no correspondence between each track of Voltera and the gate track of Metron, so it is safe to press and turn any row matrix button. During the setting, the voltage value and pitch are displayed on the Metron display and you can check the values.

 In Voltera, the voltage value that was set most recently is held until it hits a step where a new voltage is set. For example, if only the voltage of Step2 is set in the above way (for example, 1.2V), 1.2V will be kept in every step. Next, when the voltage of Step5 is set to 2.8V in the same way, 1.2V is applied to Step2 to Step4, and 2.8V is applied to Step5 to (end of loop) to Step1. When the Select button is pressed, the step where the voltage is set (the step where the output voltage changes) lights. Pressing the lit button turns off the light, clears the set voltage, and retains the voltage of the previous step.

 Like the Metron itself, live recording is also possible. By pressing the RECORD button and turning the knob, the voltage value of the knob is recorded for each step.

 

Setting the voltage range and quantization

Each CV track is individually configurable for voltage range and quantization. To do this, enter the Global menu mode in Metron and turn the knob of the track you want to set on Voltera to switch. As you turn the knob, the display on Metron switches to show the range.

  • 5-5: No quantization, -5V to 5V
  • 0-5: No quantization, 0V to 5V
  • 1-1: No quantization, -1V to 1V
  • 5q5: Quantize in semitones, -5V to 5V
  • 0q5: Quantize every semitone, 0-5V
  • 1q1: Quantize in semitones, -1V to 1V
  • On the Usr: Matrix button, a bar indicating the range and a keyboard layout indicating the quantization status are displayed. The range can be set by pressing both ends of the desired range, and the scale can be set by switching the ON / OFF of each key.
 Since the range setting and the quantization by the user scale are performed on the input, even if the range or scale is changed after setting once, the voltage that has been entered does not change accordingly. In other words, 4V struck in the range of -5V to 5V remains at 4V without being changed to 0.8V even if changed to the range of -1V to 1V. Similarly, steps with a pitch of E will not automatically become Eb even if the scale is changed to a C minor scale (excluding E). Only the newly driven voltage is quantized to the minor scale.
 

Clear and copy operations

 Like the Metron itself, Voltera allows clearing and copying of the set CV sequence. For copy paste, for example, hold down the Duplicate button and turn the knob of the Voltera track you want to copy all the way to the right. This will select the track and complete the copy. Similarly, hold down Duplicate and turn the knob of the track you want to paste all the way to the right to paste. The same goes for clearing.
