WHAT'S THAT THING ?

TRI for Trigger or for Three (!)
COMP for comparator.

It's a module that transforms any signal into triggers and gate signals.

The TRICOMP has 2 sections:
- The first generates triggers (hence the name)
- The second generates classic ON/OFF signals (GATE) combining the configuration of the 3 comparators.

The Triggers section:
When the input signal exceeds the threshold set by the associated potentiometer, instead of switching from state 0 to state 1, it generates a pulse.
The switch allows you to choose when a trigger is generated: either when the signal exceeds, or when it returns below the threshold, or both.
There is also an output that sum the 3 circuits.

The second section is a combination of the 3 circuits, and generate GATE outputs.

Typical use:
All typical use of the comparator function
Trigger generation for complexe rhythmic composition
Waveshaping tool, or complexe PWM.
