SHORT DESCRIPTION
Thank you for purchasing the FLAME TAKT eurorack module!
“TAKT” is a compact 30TE Eurorack sequencer module for playing or programming trig-
ger/gate/velocity rhythm sequences.
The sequencer has eight tracks with trigger/gate outputs, eight velocity/modulation CV
outputs, and full MIDI functionality. The CV track can also be used independently as a
modulation track. Live sequencing in looper mode is possible in two ways: SHOTS for
playing "note repeats" or quantized triggering using buttons or sensors.
Four tracks each can be triggered simultaneously with four external distance sensors.
These sensors are just 2HP narrow modules that can be installed in the rack at desired
locations. These are connected directly to the module with narrow and sufficiently long
ribbon cables, which also supplies the sensors with the necessary operating voltage.
The four sensors and the connection cables are included in the scope of delivery. The
sensors generate triggers/gates and can be switched live as a set between tracks 1-4
and 5-8 (e.g. using a foot switch).
Four syncable LFOs with VCOs for amplitude adjustment are also available. The LFOs
are equipped with many interesting functions. This includes 26 different waveforms,
phase, amplitude, speed and output voltage. These can be unipolar or bipolar (0..+5v
or +/-5v) and can also be attenuated via AMP (amplitude) with a built-in VCA. This
means that the LFO outputs can also be adapted to modules that do not have an input
attenuator.
Patterns can be switched live and are each up to four bars long. Four patterns plus one
fill pattern are saved as one scene. 50 scenes can be permanently saved in the modu-
le. This means a total of 250 patterns are available.
Additional inputs and outputs are available for controls. There are four user-defined CV
inputs, as well as two programmable analog clock outputs. On the front there are MIDI
input and output as 3.5mm TRS-B sockets. Firmware updates can be done via MIDI-
SYSEX.
