Dual Bi-Directional Routers (Top Section)

At the heart of the top section are two CV/Gate-controlled toggle switches, designed for maximum flexibility. Each switch features three jacks:

  • COM (Common): The central connection point.

  • A and B: The two selectable routing positions.

The switching behavior is momentary, meaning the module responds dynamically to external control signals:

  • When the external input (EXT) is held high (+1V or greater), COM is routed to B.

  • When the signal is low, it defaults back to A.

This allows for rapid, CV-driven signal switching in real time.

Each router is bi-directional, so you can use them in either direction:

  • Route one source to two possible destinations, or

  • Select between two sources for one output.

The module supports audio-rate switching, enabling advanced techniques like rhythmic gating, wave chopping, or dynamic signal rerouting at high speeds.

Panel Controls

Each toggle section includes a three-position switch to define its operational mode:

  • EXT (External CV Control): Responds to incoming control signals.

  • OFF: Disables switching, maintaining the default state.

  • ON (Fixed): Forces a constant connection between COM and B.

This manual override gives you the freedom to choose between CV modulation and fixed routing, right from the panel.

Dual Flip-Flops (Bottom Section)

The bottom section features two D-type (Toggle) Flip-Flops, offering a powerful and simple way to create latched switching behavior or divide signals.

Each flip-flop can be triggered either by:

  • An external CV or Gate input (+1V or higher), or

  • A manual push-button on the panel.

Every time the input is triggered, the outputs alternate between:

  • Q (Flip): +5V / 0V

  • ¬Q (Flop): 0V / +5V (inverse of Q)

This toggling behavior is ideal for:

  • Creating latching logic for the bi-directional routers above.

  • Serving as a clock divider or sub-octave generator.

  • Producing alternating control signals for gates, triggers, or logic-based patches.

LED indicators on each channel provide clear visual feedback on the current output state, making it easy to monitor your logic flow at a glance. Like the router section, the flip-flops can also operate at audio rates, making them useful for audio signal modulation or synchronized pulse generation.

Router/Toggle is a compact powerhouse for any modular rack, merging logic and switching utilities into a single module that rewards experimentation and expands creative possibilities.



** 4U Modular is a term used for the format most commonly known as “Serge Format” or “Loudest Warning Format”. Out of respect for the ever growing format, 4U Modular is the easiest way to refer to it. More Specifically it refers to the panel height and mounting hole style. 4U Modular will patch up just fine with other 4U "Serge" formats such as "Random Source", but it will not mount in RS boats or Buchla Boats (or power off Buchla power for that matter). An info page about this will be added to the website soon to make this a lot more easy to understand.
