Frequently Asked Questions - Brst 2hp

What is the 2hp Brst module used for?

The 2hp Brst is a compact Eurorack burst generator module. It produces a adjustable number of trigger pulses (bursts) each time it receives a gate or trigger signal. This is ideal for creating rhythmic patterns, percussion rolls, or triggering multiple events from a single input.

How many bursts can the Brst generate?

The Brst can generate between 1 and 16 bursts per trigger event, controlled by the 'Number' knob. The exact range may vary with firmware version; typical range is 1-16.

What power connectors does the Brst use?

It uses a standard 10-pin Eurorack power header (Doepfer keyed). The module requires +12V (50 mA) and -12V (20 mA). Ensure the red stripe on the cable aligns with the -12V marking on the module.

What are the dimensions of the Brst module?

It is 2 HP wide (10.16 mm), 3U height (128.5 mm), and about 40 mm deep including the power connector. It fits most Eurorack cases.

Can I daisy-chain power for the Brst?

Yes, the Brst has a standard 10-pin header that allows daisy-chaining with other modules using a ribbon cable. Make sure the total current draw of all modules does not exceed your power supply's capacity.

What kind of input signal does the Brst accept?

The Trigger input accepts gate/trigger signals of at least 5V amplitude. It is compatible with most Eurorack sequencers, clock dividers, and envelope generators.

Does the Brst have any firmware updates?

The Brst is a hardware module with no user-updatable firmware. However, 2hp occasionally releases new revisions. Check the official 2hp website for product updates.

What is the output level of the burst triggers?

The two burst outputs produce 0-10V trigger signals, suitable for driving most Eurorack envelope generators or clock inputs.

Can I reset the burst sequence externally?

The Brst does not have a dedicated reset input. However, the 'Mode' switch can select between 'Normal' (reset on trigger) and 'Continuous' (free-running) modes.

What is the depth of the Brst module? Does it fit in skiff cases?

The depth is about 40 mm, which is shallow enough for most skiff cases. However, always check your case's maximum module depth (often 35-50 mm).

USER MANUAL Brst 2hp

Brst is a voltage controlled burst generator and trigger delay. Upon receipt of a gate signal, Brst will output a stream of triggers. Knobs and CV inputs give the user control over speed and the number of repetitions. Whether you're generating bouncing balls, crafting IDM drum beats, or humanizing a clock signal, Brst will prove an indispensable addition to your rack.

• Voltage controlled burst generator
• CV over number of pulses and rate of output
- Initial trigger can be included or omitted from output
- Wide burst range all the way up to 32 repeats

Installation

To install, locate 2 HP of space in your Eurorack case and confirm the positive 12 volts and negative 12 volts sides of the power distribution lines. Plug the connector into the power distribution board of your case, keeping in mind that the red band corresponds to negative 12 volts. In most systems, the negative 12 volt supply line is at the bottom. The power cable should be connected to the Brst with the red band facing the front of the module.

Specifications

Format: 2 HP Eurorack module

Depth: 47mm (Skiff Friendly)

1 Brst TRIG 2 PULSES 3 4 5 RATE 6 TRIG 7 8 OUT 2hp

1. TRIG:

Trigger input

A stream of trigger signals will emit from OUT when a trigger or gate signal is received at the TRIG input

Threshold: 2.5V

2. PULSES CV:

Control voltage input for PULSES

Range: 0V - 5V

3. PULSES:

Controls the number of pulses that output when a trigger or gate signal is received by the TRIG input

If the knob is far left, the number of pulses will be set to 1 If the knob is far right, the number of pulses will be set to 32

4. RATE CV:

Control voltage input for RATE

Range: 0V - 5V

5. RATE:

Controls the delay time in between successive pulses

If the knob is far left, the delay time in between successive pulses will be set to 10ms. If the knob is far right, the delay time in between successive pulses will be set to 500ms

6. TRIG TOGGLE:

Toggle that will include or omit the initial trigger signal

If the toggle is left, the initial trigger signal will be included
If the toggle is right, the initial trigger signal will be omitted

It important to note that if the TRIG TOGGLE is right and the PULSES knob is set to 1, one pulse will emit from OUT and will be delayed by 10ms

7. BURST LED:

LED that indicates the pulses emitted from OUT

8. OUT:

Burst output

Range: 0V – 5V
