Klavis Quadigy

Quad programmable envelope generator

The Quadigy is a complex envelope generator focused on live play.
The goal is to allow the user setting up rich, interactive and dynamically evolving envelopes without the risk of breaking up a subtle and intricate patch once on stage.
This is achieved by offering two main modes, one where full control is available and a Live mode where only the settings that are sensible using on stage are accessible.
The user interface offers an intuitive access for otherwise complex settings.
Advanced features such as automatic time-stretching, multiphase clocking and full morphing put the Quadigy in a category on its own.
