Modules - TRIQ164

Could You explain how these 4-tracks may be used and how to set them? Do I understand it correctly that TRIQ64 can run four independent trigger sequences of up to 16 steps at once? I'm not sure if I need it badly, or if my old STEP10 will do for a moment

I'm not the most qualified, however I will give you my opinion based on how useful I find the TRIQ164 and how I approach "gear acquisition" 

I've found the TRIQ164 really useful as a source of triggers for resetting the SEQ16 at pre-determined points; I've used it in combination with clocks or other triggers via LOGIC to gate the ENVs; I've used it as a non-symmetrical clock signal; and I've used it as a straight rhythm generator to gate a drone. I'm just at the tip of the iceberg, my point is more that it can be drafted in to do so many different things - many of which you just won't have thought of yet   I wondered how I would use it until I started solving problems with it, now it's a key part of my rhythmic patches, even with the SEQ16 or an external sequencer.

That brings me to my second point, my gear acquisition strategy. I prefer strategy to syndrome as I like to think that I'm in control. If I have a problem that can't be solved with what I've already got, I go away and think again just to be sure. Then, if I still need (want) to solve the problem, I consider what I need to do that. For me, the move from the STEP10 to a TRIQ164 would likely sit in this space. i.e. what is it that I can't solve/do now that the new module would enable me to do - and that I need/want to do. Apologies, this is almost crtainly blindingly obvious, but it may be helpful.

Of course, you can always get the TRIQ164 when you order your first batch of extra modules, as you likely will. I realised that I wanted to do a few things that needed the 4ATTMIX and the 3VCSWITCH, so I ordered them when I bought a few other goodies. I had been getting by easily without them and I found a work-around. I also realised that I needed more VCAs and ENVs to really exploit the modular, so I got some of those as well.

My point...? There's no hurry and you will almost certainly be buying more as you explore more deeply. Luckily, at these prices, it's possible with relative ease 

Hi, yes for some reason there is always one LED on, you can choose any one, once you turn on another one you can turn off the first one.

You can also use the pulse out of the LFO to clock the TRIQ164, you don't have to use MIDI. You would then adjust the speed by changing the frequency of the LFO. You can also change the speed by changing the pulsewidth of the LFO. Just play around with these settings.

How can I choose which steps are affected by the repeat ?
