Shift Registers
e shi registers in this synth can act as 5-8 step
rhythm sequencers or random pattern generators.
e orange and white buttons are for entering or remov-
ing data from the shi register.
To loop the register, patch the data input to one of the
four data outputs (5,6,7,8). en, type bits in at the
rhythm of the clock using the data + and data - buttons.
is data will recycle.
To generate random sequences based on interference
patterns, patch one of the oscillator square outputs to
the data input of one of the shi registers. Data corre-
sponding to the pitch of the oscillator will be entered
into the shi register.
e data outputs and the R2R outputs can be used for
modulating other parts of the system.
Envelopers
Zero attack, voltage controlled decay envelopers control
the volume of each voice. ere are controls for veloc-
ity and sink (or decay). Velocity controls the starting
voltage of the envelope, sink determines how long it
takes for the envelope to fade out. e range on these
envelopers is very wide, from short clicks in the full
clockwise position of the sink knob to many seconds in
the full ccw position.
Yellow buttons toggle on and o a gated loop mode.
When the envelope is receiving a high signal at the
trigger input, the envelope will loop at a rate set by the
velocity and sink controls. Dip switches on the back of
the synth select zero-crossing mode/ phase irreverent
modes for each enveloper separately. It should be noted
that with the dip switch set to zero-crossing mode, if
the oscillator never crosses zero, the envelope will not
sound. is can happen when using oscillator sync.
