MIDI Triwave Picogenerator (Introduction)

YouTube via 4mspedals. remember, you can search on 4mspedals on the top left search box for more.
"MIDI Triwave Picogenerator driven by a standard MIDI keyboard. Audio is from Triwave's analogue oscillators. The MIDI Triwave can run as a standalone noise-maker, with 3 LFOs driving the oscillators, and at the same time MIDI Note signals control the pitches. The oscillators can be triggered by MIDI (beginning of video) or free-running (rest of the video).

MIDI Triwave with Bend Matrix Sequencer (part 1)

video upload by 4mspedals

"MIDI Triwave Picogenerator controlled by the sequencer on the Bend Matrix. Audio is from the Triwave only. Triwave is accepting MIDI Note on/off commands to generate pitches on the internal analogue oscillators, and is also being driven by it's own internal analogue LFOs. From 4ms Pedals"

4ms/Commonsound Triwave Picogenerator w/cross-mods

via this auction

"The Triwave is a generalized noisemaking machine, great for weird drones, sirens, modulations, and hiss. Click here for a page full of audio samples and videos [below]. Mine is the basic version with cross-mod knobs (on the sides) added. You can also add inputs for guitar or other instruments, and a variety of other modifications. These go for $335 from 4ms, without the cross-mods."

Triwave Picogenerator pictured

Triwave controls:

* Two tone generators (VCO's), each with:
o Pitch: center frequency from rumbling low to hissing high
o Tone: select harsh square-wave or smooth triangle-wave
* Three LFO's (low frequency oscillators), each with:
o Speed: rate of change of each pitch channel
o Depths (2 knobs per LFO): Amount of pitch modulation on each VCO
* Mix: blend between tone channels
* Volume: output level


"The Essential" Triwave:
* All of the above, plus...
* Waveshaper: (3 knobs) blend each LFO from square to triangle
* Ring mod: adds an input jack and sensitivity control for ring modulation effect
* Dual cross modulation: (2 knobs) frequency modulate each channel with the other

"The Works" Triwave:
* All of the above, plus...
* Waveshaper: blend each LFO from square to triangle, a knob per LFO
* Symmetry: blend each LFO from sawtooth ramp-up to triangle to sawtooth ramp-down, or variable duty-cycle rectangle wave, a knob per LFO
* Ring mod: adds an input jack and sensitivity control for ring modulation effect
* Aux volume: uses ring mod input jack for blending clean signal over the triwave
* Dual cross modulation: frequency modulate each channel with the other, a switch per VCO
* Range switches: select full pitch range or high range only, a switch per VCO
* Drum triggers: adds a trigger input jack and sensitivity knob per VCO, for triggering each channel with an external source
* Expression pedal jacks (pitch): control pitch of each channel with an expression pedal

"I just reviewed the Triwave for TapeOp...it's really a fun box, but people should try to build their own! 4ms gives out the schem and layout for free"

"triwavepicogenerator contains two tone generators... and three variable speed
point slow eight cycles per second to two hundred cycles per secondlow frequencie oscillateurs that independently vary the pitch of each tone generator...

controls:
red, yellow, green speed (three low frequency oscillators)
red,yellow,green linnet depths
red,yellow,green gale depths of effect of each tone generator by each oscillator...
...control the center pitches (linnet, gale) of each tone generator
mix between volumes of each tone generator...
control the master volume
..each channel's tone switches between square and triangle wave audio outputs...
lfo range extends into audio frequencies for faux ring and veri-beat modulation"
