Touch turns generative Serge patching into something more performable here. The Quasar TKB System takes Prism Circuits’ QUASAR modular environment and adds the TKB touch-activated keyboard sequencer, giving the instrument a direct way to steer melody, voltage movement, and form while still leaving plenty of room for chance.
The system is built around three Serge Paperface-format panels and uses banana patching in the classic 4U modular idiom. At the center is the Prism Circuits TKB, a 16-stage, four-row control-voltage and pulse generator with capacitive touch response. Each stage provides independent CV and gate outputs, supporting complex sequencing, manual stage addressing, real-time transposition, and hands-on performance gestures.
Prism frames the QUASAR side around random voltages and evolving structures, while the TKB adds a tactile point of control inside that open-ended architecture. All three-panel Quasar TKB systems include the gate-to-trigger converter installed on the TKB, making this a focused, source-backed entry for a complete Serge-inspired modular performance system rather than a generic Quasar listing.
