Steps

Tre Modular – Steps is a 8-step clock sequencer and processor that transforms incoming clock signals into a series of rhythmic patterns. Beyond basic sequencing, Steps incorporates features like individual step activation/deactivation and a burst mode that multiplies selected steps up to 8 times, generating complex rhythmic variations.

Since Steps uses PLL(Phase locked loop) circuit for burst mode it takes some time to lock on to the clock signal. If you want to introduce some randomness in your patch you can feed it an irregular clock signal or actively use the “Burst multiplier” slide switch and it will introduce a degree of unpredictability to your rhythms.

Furthermore, Steps extends its functionality beyond clock sequencing. It can be used as a sound processor, offering frequency multiplication and utilizing its PLL circuit for unique portamento effect.

Steps features a built-in clock source and a clock passthrough for clocking other modules.
