More CV Expander?

[sak-rwsd]

I have it set up on Track 5 and have a couple of questions:

One, I don’t understand the difference between “Track CV 5” and “Loc CV 5” (and similar Track X versus Local X Mod).  These seem the same to me, but there must be some difference I don’t understand.  

Loc CV 5 is CV Output 5 of the NerdSEQ main module
Track CV (I don't see a 5 on mine) is the CV Output of the NerdSEQ main module of the track you are on. So on track 5 it is equal to Loc CV 5 and on track 4 it is equal to Loc CV 4. Analog with Mod.

It is documented on page 83 of the V1.23 manual.

Two, if I want to send note information as well as a trigger on the same step, what I’ve done is assign columns/destination 1 and 2 each to Track CV.  One has the note info and the other, I use TT2 (just triggers).  Just want to start off with good practice, and to see if this is the best way to go about it?

That is a question I too asked earlier this year and got no answer. I'm currently using ^11 and ^16 for gates. If I were to use triggers I'd probably go for the TT* as well.

I have no answer to your last question since I have yet to start playing with that part 

Kind regards,
Michael

Thanks Michael,

Yes, I did see that in the manual, but as it seems to me that the two effectively mirror each other - i.e. at least in my limited use, it seemed I could choose either Loc 1-6 or Track 1-6 irregardless of the track I’m on - I just wanted to see if there was any other difference that I wasn’t getting.  I think if I could only choose the Local track with Loc CV and the others with Trk CV, it would be straightforward to me.

In terms of the last part, I hope I can figure that out, as I mostly want to be able to plug in some modules and use the More CV 16 as a programmable CV source for modulation.  I feel like I must be doing something dumb, entering values (notes or hexadecimal) on the Ext CV doesn’t seem to output any change (but the LFO works).  Previously, has been working fine with the Main CV outs, though I too have only made limited use of this.  Will keep on fiddling around!  

I mostly enjoy tweaking knobs and throwing the Voltage Block into the mix, but then, as my modules have increased, I only have so many hands and so though I would try to program it a bit.  I also get different sounds and textures when sequencing the modulation.

Best,
