Input/Output:

CLOCK IN: Insert a 0-5V trigger or gate source to drive the Trigger Riot when the

external clock is selected by holding the Start/Stop button. The rate for the incom-

ing clock signal can be selected by the (‘DIN’) function. The two rates are 1/16th

notes (‘16th’) or 24 PPQ DIN Sync (‘DIN’) based on the Roland specification.

CLOCK OUT:

Outputs each clock based on the BPM and Clock setting. The two

rates are 1/16th notes (‘16th’) or 24 PPQ DAW (’DAW’) or DIN Sync (‘DIN’) based

on the Roland specification and identical to what is set as Clock In.

RESET IN:

Resets the internal count to the Cycle Start.

RESET OUT:

Triggered when the internal count is reset either by the Cycle setting

or by an external trigger.

OUTS: 0-5V trigger/gate outputs.

NOTES ABOUT CLOCKS:

16TH: This clock is the most common among analog sequencers. A clock is sent

or received every 1/16th note. Reset In/Out is a single pulse for resetting the

count.

DIN: DIN Sync (Sync 24) is only intended to sync with vintage Roland TR series

devices. The clock runs at 24 PPQN (6x faster than 16th) and the Reset In/Out

carries the Run signal. Run goes high on playback and low when stopped. The

Riot uses delays to mimic the timing behavior of the old Roland devices and will

not tightly sync with modern devices claiming to use ‘DIN Sync’.

DAW: This is a 24 PPQN signal like DIN only without delays and a standard Reset

pulse. Use this clock with Expert Sleepers or the pulse files in the link below to

sync the Riot to a DAW with sample accuracy.

CR: A type of SyncBus that ignores the Preset data which allows the Riot and Cir-

cadian Rhythms to share a clock, but run internal loops.
