The Gestural Time Extractor (GTE) music synthesizer module is an analog pulse extractor and Channel Index Translator for the New Universal Synthesizer System or any Eurorack modular system. From the motion of the signal at the Span input, it derives up to eight individual channel pulses, as well as a GTE pulse stream representing the speed of motion of the input signal, and two gate outputs representing activity at the even and odd channels. The Space parameter determines the threshold proximity of the channels to each other and thereby also the sensitivity and reactivity of the GTE and other outputs. When the Clock input is in use, the GTE’s output channel will only change upon reception of a trigger or gate, allowing for changes to easily be synchronized with other existing events in the system. With all controls set to starter min-max positions, the GTE also operates as a Channel Index Translator for PoliMATHS and other New Universal Synthesizer System modules that generate Channel Index signals, allowing the accurate derivation of individual channel gates from activity at the respective channels of the source module. The GTE can be used to generate repeatable and controllable rhythm and timing information from any analog synthesizer signal, whether arbitrary or targeted, and is also useful for individual voice timing signal generation within a multi-voice N.U.S.S. system.

Extract rhythms and pulse streams from any voltage source, whether physical gesture, function generator, or programmed sequence Synchronize GTE to any clock source with the Clock input Use GTE to synchronize any event in your system with Activations from PoliMATHS and MultiWAVE - regardless of Span mode Compact and powerful analog module Pairs well with PoliMATHS, MATHS, or Jumbler Width: 8 hp Max Depth (incl. power cable): 29 mm Power: 25 mA @+12V 2 mA @-12V
