I received the Intellijel tetrapad today, this got me really excited as this takes my "control boat" to the level where i want to be.. e.g tactile surfaces to control voltages and what nots in my modular system. It helps with not having to dive in between cables, e.g just patch up the stuff i usually want to control, or some other weird stuff and go with the flow. :)
I took a track that i am currently working on, sort of finished up.. used that old patch to save some time, slowed down the bpm a bit and hooked up the tetrapad.
Tetrapad is in fader mode, with 1-.3 in latch, and 4 momentary. First one listed is fader, second is pressure.
Fader 1: Ripples filter cutoff and an envelope release/fall in maths used for the A-111-3 VCO bass line. VCA is uVCA, driven pretty hot.
Fader 2: Structure and Brightness to the Rings melody.
Fader 3: uVCF filter cutoff and timbre for the SYNC sound sequence on braids.
Fader 4: Pitch and decay for the BIA rhythm pattern.
All is sequenced by the winter modular eloquencer. There is also a fair bit of modulation going on from PAM and uO_C, especially for BIA to create some extra movement to the drum pattern.
FX for Rings and Braids is the strymon timeline, BIA and A-111-3 keeley caverns.

![BURG1k Hardware Jam Group Challenge [Challenge Ended on 12/5]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/QqyJr6Y-LKY/mqdefault.jpg "BURG1k Hardware Jam Group Challenge [Challenge Ended on 12/5]
This challenge has Ended on 2018-12-05, thanks for all submissions!
The main idea of this challenge is to give others insight and inspiration of what they can get for 1000USD, also what the setup could potentially sound like.
My music:
Bandcamp ► https://music.ollilab.com/
Spotify ► https://open.spotify.com/artist/5lPHagff7SG960LQZfva9Q
The total cost of gear should NOT exceed 1000 USD
The cost should be for ALL music gear used, synths, FX pedals etc
Video and Audio recorder units, Mixing console and cables, peripherals are excluded from the total cost calculations
A complete list of the gear, items used is mandatory in the post detailing the total cost.
Please remember for your own submissions, videos are easier to review should there be any questions regarding the actual use of equipment, so if you know that your track will sound complex, a video is recommended.
Also, try and keep your track below or around 5 minutes, there will be a lot of music for all of us to review and listen to.
Make sure to check out my third BURG1k session, maybe this one can help give you guys some inspiration!
