Q182TS, ThumbStick Controller

The Q182TS is a dual-axis ThumbStick Controller like that found on many popular video game systems. Two voltages are created, one for each axis of the ThumbStick, along with a Switch Gate when the ThumbStick is pressed. The ThumbStick returns to center when released. Perfect for pitch-bending, filter control and sequencer triggering. The Q182TS is a double-space module so it can be mounted anywhere in a system or in a Box cabinet next to your keyboard and other controllers. The ThumbStick Controller uses our standardized Q182 dual-channel controller interface module providing an Auto Gate, Switch Gate and a voltage output preset switch for each axis. Voltage Output Presets A voltage output is created for each axis as the ThumbStick Controller is moved. The range of each voltage is controlled by the Output Range Preset switches to select 5 volts, 2 volts or 4/12ths volt. Use the 4/12ths volt position for +/-2 semitones of pitch bend. For modulation, use the 5 volt position t
