Take control of your modular signals with the 4ms Catalyst Controller, a macro controller with eight precision CV outputs and a responsive crossfader to morph between scenes. Each scene is a snapshot of up to eight CV outputs, which can work like a modular preset. Jump to different scenes with the dedicated scene buttons or traverse a pathway composed of multiple scenes using the crossfader or an external CV signal. Record CV and slider movements, and play recordings back via a button or external trigger.
Each precision output has a maximum range of -5V to +10V. Channels have an adjustable morphing curve that can be quantized to common scales, restricted to a particular voltage range or set to output gates. Whether used as a CV preset manager, seamless transition generator, chord sequencer, CV recorder, or experimental CV playground, the Catalyst Controller puts control of your modular at your fingertips.

- Eight output channels, each can be CV or Gate
- Arrange scenes into pathways of up to 64 scenes
- Smooth, responsive crossfader morphs from scene to scene along the pathway
- Set slew/lag to limit how fast scenes can change
- Adjustable Morph time per output
