Common Intellijel Tetrapad Questions
How do I connect the Tetrapad to my computer via MIDI and control software instruments?
Connect the Tetrapad to your computer using a USB cable. You'll need to configure the Tetrapad's MIDI settings via its menu (accessed by holding button 1 on power-up) to output MIDI CC messages and assign these to parameters in your software.
How do I save and recall different Kits/Presets on the Tetrapad?
To save, hold the 'Record' button then press a pad to select the Kit number to save to, release both to save. To recall a kit, tap the 'Select' button, then tap the associated pad.
What are the basic touch modes and how do I switch between them?
The Tetrapad has several touch modes, including momentary, toggle, and gate. Cycle through these modes by holding the 'Select' button and tapping the pad associated with the desired mode displayed in the corner of the screen.
My Tetrapad isn't responding to touch or the display is frozen. What should I do?
Try power cycling the module. If the problem persists, ensure the module is receiving adequate power and is properly seated in your Eurorack case. Check the Intellijel website for firmware updates.
What is 'Pressure Mode' and how can it be used to create expressive performances?
Pressure Mode allows you to output a voltage that corresponds to the amount of pressure applied to a pad. Enable Pressure Mode by selecting it as the modulation source in the menu, and use the 'Pressure CV' output to control parameters like filter cutoff or volume.
