Contents

• The ADE-33 is a rhythm and pattern creation and manipulation module.
• Within the context of this module – an ‘Event’ is any clock, gate, trigger, square-wave or PWM
(Pulse Width Modulation) LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator) input. The ADE-33 does not ‘sync’
to incoming signals – it just reads them as inputs.
• It can be used in two different ways – in its most basic form it can be used as a utility module to
perform various clock division/multiplication, phase shifting and logic-related tasks. However, it is
at its most creative when used as a real-time pattern generator for creating musically useful rhythms
and patterns from simple clock, rhythm and CV (Control Voltage) inputs.
• It will take regular clocks as inputs and generate rhythmic patterns at the output, it will take rhythmic
patterns and generate variations of those patterns and it will take irregular and random clocks and
generate new, irregular and probability-based patterns. These patterns can be predictable, repeatable,
evolving or entirely random – as the user chooses.
• The ADE-33 has 6 Global Modes and each Global Mode has 6 Local Modes – so 36 modes in total.
• The Global Modes are essentially 6 sets of algorithms – each with a different theme and the Local
Modes are essentially 6 variations on each of these themes. In simple terms – given the same input
signals and the same CV settings – each Local Mode will produce a different rhythm or pattern
variation according to the way its algorithm interprets a given input signal and CV setting.
• The ADE-33 has the following Global Modes:
1) Variables: Rhythmic patterns and circadian-style rhythms
2) Multiples: Clock multiplication and division by factors from 1-12
3) Probability: Pseudo-random, probability and chance-based variations
4) Logic: Classic logic-based functionality
5) Phase: Phase shifting, time-based delays and swing-style effects
6) Gates: Trigger and Gate-based manipulation and generation
• You don’t need to understand the maths theory behind logic or probability in order to use the ADE-33.
While it can perform the specific functions associated with these algorithms, the ADE-33 is designed
as a pattern generator – to be played and jammed along with.
• It’s worth noting that there are slight differences in front panel configuration between different Global
Modes. For example Global Mode 4, used as intended, requires logic, gate or clock signals at inputs
IN: GATE A1 (and optionally at IN: GATE A2) and IN: GATE B/CV however Global Mode 1 requires
some sort of CV signal at input IN: GATE B/CV.
• The ADE-33 has reverse-voltage protection built in – but please pay attention to the power supply and
connection guidelines on Page 3 of this manual.

3) Rear Connections
RED STRIPE
POWER CABLE
PRECAUTIONS: Only connect the power cable to the power connection as shown.
DO NOT CONNECT THE POWER CABLE TO ANY OTHER PORT!
The ADE-33 uses the Doepfer standard for power connection and cable orientation.
The RED stripe on the supplied power cable connects to the NEGATIVE (-12V) rail
on the ADE-33 with the RED stripe facing DOWN. This is marked on the back of
the ADE-33 PCB as “– RED”.
The ADE-33 has diode and polyfuse protection built in but an incorrectly connected
cable may still cause permanent damage to the module or the power supply.
The rear panel of the ADE-33 has exposed parts and connections. Please ensure
when handling the ADE-33 that the unit is held by the sides of the front panel or
the sides of the PCB (Printed Circuit Board).

1) SETTING GLOBAL & LOCAL MODE
Click-Hold both the MODE SELECT and the GATE A1/A2 SELECT buttons until one of the
Mode LEDs 1-6 flashes slowly. The module is now in Global Edit Mode.
Click or Double-Click MODE SELECT to cycle through to LED 1. This selects Global Mode 1.
Click-Hold both the MODE SELECT and the GATE A1/A2 SELECT buttons until the LED
stops flashing. This exits Global Edit Mode.
Click or Double-Click MODE SELECT to cycle through to LED 1. This selects Local Mode 1.
2) INPUTS & OUTPUTS
Insert any regular Event signal e.g. a clock, gate, trigger or square-wave/PWM LFO into IN: GATE A1.
Connect the OUT to any source that requires a gate or trigger signal e.g. an envelope generator
set up as part of any basic synth patch.
With no CV inserted – this first algorithm (Global Mode 1/Local Mode 1) will send whatever signal
is at the input, straight to the output with no change.
Click or Double-Click MODE SELECT to cycle through Local Modes 1-6.
Even with no CV inserted – the algorithm for each Local Mode will interpret the input signal differently
and provide a different output pattern from a single input signal.
Click or Double-Click MODE SELECT to return to Local Mode 1.
3) LOCAL MODE CV CONTROL
Insert a non-square LFO into GATE B/CV. As the LFO travels between 0-5V the selected Local Mode
algorithm will start to ‘chop’ into the input signal. The regular input signal is now being output as a pattern.
Changing the LFO wave type or replacing it with a 0-5V CV source at fixed voltage values will both
potentially affect the pattern that is generated by each Local Mode for any given input signal.
3) LOCAL MODE SELECTION VIA CV
Click-Hold the MODE SELECT button until one of the Mode LEDs 1-3 flashes quickly. The module
is now in Button Edit Mode for this button.
Click or Double-Click the MODE SELECT button to cycle through to LED 1. This selects the first
CV option for IN: MODE SELECT. Click-Hold the MODE SELECT button to exit Button Edit Mode.
Select a second, Event signal and insert it into IN: MODE SELECT. This signal will now step through
the Local Modes 1-6 for this Global Mode.
Remove the input at IN: MODE SELECT and repeat the process above for setting the CV options
for IN: MODE SELECT – but this time select LED 2.
Select a non-Square LFO or CV source e.g. an envelope generator and insert it into IN: MODE SELECT.
This 2nd CV option for IN: MODE SELECT will move through the Local Modes according to CV value.
Remove the input at IN: MODE SELECT and click MODE SELECT to return to Local Mode 1.
4) GATE A1/A2 SELECTION VIA CV
Click the GATE A1/A2 SELECT button and it will alternate between IN: GATE A1 and IN: GATE A2.
The algorithm for the selected Local Mode will receive its signal from whatever input is selected.
Click-Hold the GATE A1/A2 SELECT button until one of the A1/A2 LEDs flashes quickly, then click
this button to alternate between the two CV options. Click-Hold GATE A1/A2 SELECT to exit the
Button Edit Mode for this button.
Take the ‘Event’ signal you previously used at IN: MODE SELECT and insert it into IN: GATE A2.
Gate A1/A2 selection can now be controlled via by either of the CV options available for this button.

MODE OVERVIEW
The Variables mode takes a CV value of 0-5V and converts it to a variable <n> between 1-8.
Each new input Event increments an internal counter that loops upward from1-8. The counter
and the <n> value interact to tell each Local Mode whether to allow particular input Events to ‘pass’
to the output or whether to ‘block’ them. By varying the CV value or the Local Mode or both – many
different patterns can be created from simple input signals.
FIRST PATCH

Page 7 of 13

MODE OVERVIEW
The Multiples mode outputs a signal that’s tempo is divided down (slower) or multiplied up (faster)
than the tempo of the input signal. How slow or fast – or how far the tempo is divided down
or multiplied up – is calculated by a combination of the tempo of the input Event, the CV value
and the selected Local Mode.

Event inputs with irregular timing.

also change.

Page 8 of 13

MODE OVERVIEW
The Probability mode is a set of pseudo-random and percentage chance-based algorithms.
Whether or not an input Event appears at the Output – or in what form it appears – is decided on by
‘chance’. For this mode – ‘chance’ is a percentage betwen 0% (definitely will not happen) and 100%
(definitely will happen) that is set by a CV value of between 0-5V.
FIRST PATCH

MODE OVERVIEW
The Phase mode allows a user to shift the starting point or adjust the ‘mark/space’ ratio of an input
Event to a later starting point or to a different ratio. This is all done via CV and depending on the
selected Local Mode - the starting point shift or the mark/space ratio change can be based on a
‘musical’ sub division, a percentage shift or a time-based delay in mS.
