A message as a pattern generator. Type into Text and it is keyed out in real ITU morse timing - dits, dahs, letter gaps, word gaps - as a clean sine tone locked to the transport. Silent while stopped; press Play and it keys from the top of the message.
Parameters
| Text | The message. Letters, digits and common punctuation; anything morse cannot say is skipped. |
| WPM | Keying speed in words per minute (the PARIS standard: one unit is 1.2/WPM seconds). 15 is a comfortable listen; 5 is a dirge. |
| Sync | Ignore WPM and make one unit exactly one 16th note instead - the message becomes a rhythm on the grid, and tempo changes re-time it live. |
| Note | The tone's pitch, as a note - it follows the patch Tuning like every native instrument. |
| Loop | Repeat the message forever with the standard seven-unit word gap between passes. Off = one pass per Play. |
| Level | Output volume. |
The 3 ms key edges are deliberately soft - no clicks, close to a real keyed oscillator. Send it through Fern or a Filter sweep and the telegraph turns into a melody line; Sync + a short percussive Decay-style chain makes it a step pattern you can read.
The dotted MIDI outlet keys the same message as note-on/off pairs at the Note pitch: cord it into a Kick and the message becomes a rhythm, into Acid or a plugin and it plays as a line. Turn Level to 0 and Morse is a pure MIDI pattern source.
Try: "CQ CQ" at 20 WPM, or your own name with Sync on at 140 BPM.
