![]() Triggers are generally used for percussive sounds. So what’s the practical difference? A gate allows you to hold a note down (sustain) while a trigger doesn’t. A trigger, however, is just a tiny little pulse that sends out a high voltage and then goes back to 0 volts for a fraction of a second. If you press and hold a key on a midi keyboard Yarns would translate that to a high voltage. Now, what is the difference between gate and trigger you might think? Gate is a timed pulse. For my first patch, I was using Yarns in monophonic mode which means each incoming midi note was translated into 1 cv (pitch) output and 1 gate or trigger output. It can take up to 4 midi inputs and put out 4 monophonic outputs, 2 duophonic outputs or 1 polyphonic output. In my case, Yarns was used as a note input. The signal flow for a subtractive synth would be like this: note input > oscillator > filter > amplifier (VCA) > effects > output. My setup is basically a simple subtractive synthesizer.
