I have heard mention of the Transcendence mode a few times, but not got round to finding out what it is, but thanks to a picture that popped up on Imgur I've had it working on both of my CT5s (a second hurrah that I didn't end up selling one).

I just spent a good 40 mins playing with 2 CT5s, a BitQuest as a delay between them and a Particle after them all.

Once I'd got a bit of something going in the first CT5 I recorded a snippet with the second and played with both for a bit, then recorded another snippet, and so on.

Hours of fun

This is the last 15 mins of last night's fun, with just a little trim to remove the sound of me turning the recorder off.

At this point I'd put down the guitar and was just playing with the controls on the pedals.

Unfortunately, with the CT5, you'll also need to keep it under 3.3v.

multi_s wrote:the ct5 is only happy up to 3.3VDC. THere is some protection/tolerance a bit above but i really do not recommend using a cv if you are not clamping the input voltage somehow. If you blow the cpu this way i will not warranty it since i do not advertise it as a cv in/ there is not much protection/it expects a pot and only a pot/sorry that is the design for now. You could hack some parts onto the small pcb holding the expression jack (on rev j and up) or onto the panel mounted expression jack (revh,i) to make it safer but as it is it's nto super well protected from excessive voltage on teh expression input.

from the 8 step manual though:

EXP/CV OUT Jack

The 8-STEP’s sequence is output through this jack. When connecting to the Expression
input on an external pedal or other device, normally you will want to connect the TRS cable
that came supplied with the 8-STEP to the 8-STEP’s EXP/CV jack. If you are connecting the
8-STEP to a CV input, use a standard ¼” mono/TS instrument cable instead, the same type
of cable you would plug into a guitar. When a TRS cable is plugged into the EXP/CV OUT
jack, the 8-STEP works as a replacement for a typical expression pedal with the following
connections: TIP = potentiometer wiper or output signal, RING = Toe position and
SLEEVE = Heel position. This is the standard polarity for the TRS plug of an expression
pedal that many in the industry follow including all EHX products as well as Boss®
/Roland® ,Moog®, Nord® etc. Tip: To work properly with devices that accept 3.3V as their maximum,
such as Eventide® products, set DEPTH to 5.


regarding 7v, again ymmv. there is some protection but not much. Anything over 3v will be the same as toe down on expression pedal and may damage the device.
