4ms Quad Clock Distributor Eurorack Module (10 HP)

4ms QDC MODULE Overview

Keep your modular system in sync with the 4ms Quad Clock Distributor, a four-channel voltage-controlled clock divider/multiplier module in Eurorack format. The QCD is a versatile head-of-the-chain master clock with master tap tempo. Each channel can be synced to the tap tempo, to the channel above, or to an external clock. Each channel also has a reset jack.

Use the Tap Tempo button to establish an interval, while five synced clock outputs generate complex rhythmic patterns. Go even further by patching multiple channels into each other`s Reset and Div/Mult CV inputs. The QCD ships with a ribbon power cable and mounting screws.

Clocking Functions

• Four CV-controlled Clock Divider/Multipliers
• Tap tempo button and five sync`d clock outputs make the QCD perfect for head-of-the-chain "Master" clock module
• Tap clock output runs at the tapped tempo (even if other channels are being clocked externally)
• Create complex rhythmic patterns by patching multiple channels into each other`s Div/Multi CV and Reset
• Each of the four channels has an independent clock IN, OUT, Reset and Div/Multi CV
• Divide or Multiply incoming clock from ÷32 to x16 on each channel:
  • Detented knob to snap to integer division/multiples
  • CV jack to modulate Div/Mult amount

Advanced Features

• Reset jack (per channel) restarts the clock when a trigger is received (alters phase of clock)
• Clock input jacks are normalized top to bottom: Tap †’ Red †’ Black †’ Blue †’ Green
• Clock outputs stop automatically when incoming clock stops
• LEDs blink to output clocks` tempos
• 5V clock output pulses, fully buffered. Default is square-wave, and PW is controllable with expander
• Daisy-chain multiple QCDs or other clock modules using Tap Out jack
• Header on the PCB to connect to Quad Pingable LFO (QPLFO) to provide four CVs that can be skewed, and CV envelopes that can be divided or multiplied
• Interfaces with QCD Expander for more features (Pulse Width, Inverted Gate, attenuverters for CV inputs)
