Compass Octagonal Joystick Controller

Tesseract Modular Compass

Traverse the uncharted waters of modulation with Compass from Tesseract Modular, an eight-sided CV joystick controller with eight discrete outputs for controlling any parameter you see fit. Each output corresponds to one of the eight main sides of a compass: north, north-west, west, etc. allowing you to control complex systems of modulation with a single CV source. There are eight toggle switches that can be used to affect each output, changing the CV scaling from 0V to +10V, 0V to +5V, and -5V to +5V. This is perfect for modules that only accept specific ranges of CV, or if you're just looking for a less extreme CV output.

In addition to the eight main outputs Compass also features eight independent LFOs, the rate of which is affected by how the joystick is operated. As the joystick moves in the direction of the corresponding LFO, its rate will raise; inversely, the LFO farthest from the joystick will behave at the slowest rate. These in tandem with the main outputs give you access to sixteen individual modulation sources, all affected by a single point of control. If you've left home on your long modular journey without a guide, Compass from Tesseract Modular is an intuitive and fun modulator for any system in need of hands-on control.
