Trigon-6 User’s Guide

Getting Started

The Trigon-6 is a six-voice, polyphonic analog synthesizer with discrete

voltage-controlled oscillators and lters, and voltage-controlled ampli-

ers. It was designed to provide all of the warmth and presence of a

vintage-era, ladder lter-equipped synth with the added convenience and

stability of a state-of-the-art, modern instrument.

The Trigon-6 is rst and foremost a performance instrument. All of its

sound-shaping controls are immediately accessible on its front panel,

packing a tremendous amount of power and versatility into a compact,

easy-to-use format.

You can nd in-depth information about each of the Trigon-6’s parame-

ters in later sections of this manual. But don’t hesitate to dive right in and

start turning knobs and pressing buttons before you begin reading. You

can always get back to where you started, even if you have no idea what

you’re doing. So start exploring and keep your ears and mind open!

Sound Banks

The Trigon-6 contains a total of 1000 programs. 500 are permanent and

500 can be overwritten. Banks 0-4 are User Banks that can be overwrit-

ten. Banks 5-9 are Factory Banks that are permanent. You can edit the

programs of either bank, but you can only save them to Banks 0-4. As

shipped from the factory, presets 000-499 are identical to 500-999.

Program bank, tens, and number selectors

Selecting Programs

Use the bank, tens, and program selector buttons to select and recall

programs.

To choose a program:

1. Hold down the bank button then press a program selector button (0-9)

to specify the “hundreds” bank of the program.

2. Hold down the tens button then press a program selector button (0-9)

to specify the “tens” digit of the program.

3. Press a program selector button (0-9) to specify the “ones” digit of the

program.

To choose program 123, for example:

1. Hold bank and press 1. Then release the bank button.

2. Hold tens and press 2. Then release the tens button.

3. Press program selector button 3.

It’s not always necessary to enter all 3 digits of a program number to

recall it.

Trigon-6 User’s Guide

Getting Started

For example:

• If the current program is 100 and you want to recall program 101,

simply press “1.”

• If the current program is 100 and you want to recall program 110, hold

down the tens button and press “1.”

• If the current program is 100 and you want to recall program 115, hold

down the tens button and press “1.” Then release the tens button and

press “5.”

Pressing the globals button three times in a row saves the current program as

the default program that appears when you turn on the Trigon-6.

Stepping Through Presets Using the Inc/Dec Buttons

Instead of having to manually enter the Banks, Tens, and Ones digits to

recall a preset, you can also use the Increment/Decrement buttons to step

through programs sequentially, one by one.

To do this:

1. Hold bank select/dec and press tens select/inc to increment by a

single program.

2. Hold tens select/inc and press bank select/dec to decrement by a

single program.

Editing Programs

Because all of the sound-shaping controls of the Trigon-6 appear on its front

panel, editing an existing program is simple: just turn a knob and listen to its

effect. Keep turning knobs and pressing buttons and if you like what you’ve

created, save the program. (See “” on page 5.)

The rotary controls on the front panel are a mixture of “endless” rotary encoders

and potentiometers or “pots.” You can choose between three different modes that

determine how the synth reacts when parameters are edited with a pot. For details,

see “Pot Mode” on page 15.
