Bela Gliss 1U

MUSICAL FEATURES

The Gliss 1U is a module that introduces gesture control to modular systems by playing with your fingers on a recordable touch strip.GlissThis is the 1U version.

Gliss simultaneously generates two high resolution signals: onefinger positionThe other istouched sizeDepending on.These signals are available via two CV outputs, providing two dimensions of control within the system.Gestures can be recorded for up to 2 seconds, after which they can be looped, triggered and clocked.This makes it easy to do everything from touch-controlled long modulated signals to custom LFOs, envelopes and oscillators.This can be a very useful tool that allows you to create exactly the modulation you envision for a particular parameter in real time.

Despite its compact size, Gliss can be a powerful visualization tool, providing clear feedback of both internal and external signals by diffusing LEDs through the faceplate.The external signal isThe ability to clip, offset, scale, scale and smooth with touch extends CV utility work into the interactive and performative realm.

Gliss offers a wide variety of functions through an easy menu system.This includes a tunable 5-key keyboard with glissando and vibrato, a 5-step sequencer, wave shaper, wave table and more.Additionally, Gliss is open source, allowing users to hack, remix, and extend its modules.
