General Usage
SHQ is a quad sample and hold module with optional quantizing.
The intention behind SHQ was to provide both a flexible and easy to use sample and hold module, and also a simple to use quantizer for common scales. There are 87 fixed scales, if you need other scales (!) then I would point you to the MTQ module, which is fully customisable.
each of the SHQ 4 instances has its own signal input (SIG) , and a trigger (TRIG) input.
the basic operation is:
on a rising edge TRIG input (> 0.5) the SIGnal is read, and output (along with TRIG output)
if no SIG input is connected, S&H will use a random voltage (unique for each S&H instance)
if the QUANT button is pressed, then the outputs will all be quantised. the quantisation is based on the SCALE selected and the ROOT note.

Tips
the module is optimised so that it only evaluate those sample and holds that have outputs connected to them.
the 4 instance of the sample and hold have the trigger normalised. this means if you connect the 4 outputs to something, and don't have a signal input for each. then trigger the first instance, will emit random voltage on all 4 outputs.
essentially ROOT acts as a tranposition, where A4 = 0v This in practice means that you can leave your oscillators tuned to A (default for SSP), and use SHQ to ensure pitches are transposed to a particular key (scale + tonic)
