M Stay aya 00 SALUT Thank you for purchasing the Xaoc Devices product The Tirana module comes in handy as a classic step sequencer modulation source voltage bank arpeggiator etc serv AA PR HE gt ing as the utility module for supporting other sequencers but it also shines on its own terms Due to smart features to be described in this manual Tirana provides a number of very interesting possibilities and turns out to be surpris OPERATOR S MANUAL 60 1 2 ingly powerful module while preserving the ease of use and minimal real estate in the system It is only 6hp and therefore a perfect solution for compact and portable modular setups but can empower just any system to a great extent THE MODULE EXPLAINED PANEL CONTROLS gt LTT C e TIRANA 1960 UTILITY MICRO SEQUENCER STE P Lii UNIPOLAR Ov UNIPOLAR VOLTAGE BIPOLAR UNIPOLAR 10y by BIPOLAR VOLTAGE r BIPOLAR Ov 5y GETTING STARTED Clear 6hp space in your eurorack cabinet and turn the power off Ensure that the jumper on the 1N header re mains in place for single unit operation for multiplied setups read the instructions further down in the manual Now plug in the ribbon cable to the bus board observing the red stripe orientation Tirana has been secured against reversed power connection but it is always a good habit to pay attention t
