Tiptop Trigger Riot - Manual (Page 12)

Loop (B2) - Loop On/Off (‘LOOP’) turns the looping on and off by holding this
button and then using the Tempo knob.
Loop Start (B3) - Loop Start (‘LPSt’). Select the Bank and Preset for the loop to
begin.
Loop End (B4) - Loop End (‘LPEn’). Select the Bank and Preset for the end of
the loop.
Note : Loops can run forward or backwards. Also note that the internal Cycle
must be set to a non-zero value or the external Reset In must be triggered for the
presets to change.
BPM/CYCLE: This button toggles between the following functions:
1) Tempo (‘bPm’) - sets the Tempo in Beats Per Minute (BPM)
2) Cycle End(‘CYCE’) - sets the internal Reset count. 0 sets the counter up
to infinity. Values from 1 to 255 will reset the counter after that many
clocks and, as mentioned earlier, is a great way to make things sound more
repetitive.
3) Cycle Start (‘CYCS’) - the value the clock resets to from 1 to 255. Setting a 4
will make a division of 4 fire immediately on reset. This allows alignment with
other devices like x0x style sequencers.
Note: After a timeout the knob returns to setting Tempo in BPM. Whatever was set
is saved.
START/STOP: Starts and Stops the internal clock. Displays ‘Strt’ and ‘Stop’ on the
display. On Start it sends a reset pulse on the Reset out jack to synchronize other
sequencers. Hold the button down to access these features:
1) Clock Source: Select from Internal (‘Int’), External (‘EXt’), SyncBus (‘SYNC’) and
Circadian Rhythms (’Cr’). Internal clock source is default.
2) Clock Rate: DIN Sync, DAW or 16th notes for Clock In and Clock Out.
DIN is used to sync with Roland TR series devices only, DAW has a high resolution
24 PPQN rate suitable for sync with a computer. 16th notes is default and the rate
used by most Eurorack sequencers.
3) Reset First/Last : Set reset to fire on the first count or the last count of a
cycle. First is default
Each button hold cycles thru these three functions and pressing the button once
exits and returns to BPM. After 20 seconds it times out and returns to BPM.
