Mutable Instruments Peaks User manual

LFO: Low frequency oscillator
5 waveforms are provided, each of them continously
variable:
• Sine with wavefolding
• Triangle with controllable ascending/descending ratio
• Square with duty cycle control
• Stepped triangle with variable number of steps
• Clocked noise with interpolation control
Knob TWIN & EXPERT mode SPLIT mode
1 Frequency Ch. 1 Frequency
2 Waveform Ch. 1 Waveform
3 Waveshape variation Ch. 2 Frequency
4 Initial phase Ch. 2 Waveform
The trigger resets the LFO to the phase set by the
“initial phase” control.
Peaks
Dual trigger converter
TAP: Tempo synchronized LFO
This function is similar to the LFO except that the fre-
quency is synchronized to the rate of the input trigger
signals, or to the “taps” on the buttons (G) and (H).
Knob TWIN & EXPERT mode SPLIT mode
1 Amplitude Ch. 1 Waveform
2 Waveform Ch. 1 Shape
3 Waveshape variation Ch. 2 Waveform
4 Initial phase Ch. 2 Shape
DRUM: Analog modeling drums
Channel 1 is a modeled analog bass drum, and channel
2 a modeled snare drum.
Knob TWIN & EXPERT mode SPLIT mode
1 Frequency BD attack
2 Frequency modulation/
tone
BD decay
3 Attack/noisiness SD tone
4 Decay SD noisiness
Note: With extreme noisiness and tone settings, the
snare drum turns into a hi-hat.
Tips
Hold the function selection switch (F) for 1 second to
unlock 4 new secret functions. Repeat this operation to
go back to the 4 standard functions.

About Peaks
Peaks is a 2-channel multi-function signal generator:
envelopes, synchronized low-frequency oscillations, or
drum signals can be generated in response to triggers.
Installation
Peaks requires a -12V / +12V power supply (2x5 pins
connector). The red stripe of the ribbon cable (-12V side)
must be oriented on the same side as the “Red stripe”
marking on the board.
The power consumption is as follows:
-12V: 2mA ; +12V: 60mA.

Control modes
Peaks can operate in 3 different modes:
TWIN: Both channels share the same parameters but
can be triggered independently. The 4 knobs control the
4 parameters. Perfect for duophony!
SPLIT: Knobs 1&2 control two main parameters of chan-
nel 1; and knobs 3&4 two main parameters of channel 2.
Press the button (E) to switch back and forth between
TWIN and SPLIT mode. The LED is lit in SPLIT mode.
EXPERT: Channel 1 and 2 are completely independent.
Hold the button (E) for 1 second to enter the EXPERT
mode. Press (E) to change the channel. The LED blinks
once when channel 1 is active, twice when channel 2 is
active. Hold (E) for 1 second to leave the EXPERT mode.
ENV: Envelope generator
Knob TWIN & EXPERT mode SPLIT mode
1 Attack Ch. 1 Attack
2 Decay Ch. 1 Decay
3 Sustain Ch. 2 Attack
4 Release Ch. 2 Decay
In Twin & Expert modes, the envelope is an ADSR and
requires a Gate signal.
In Split mode, the envelope is a simpler AD, and only
requires a Trigger signal.
