Analogue Solutions EKG - Manual

Mode Switches
This 8 way rotary switch sets the
Mode for the selected Step.
CV Output Level
This slider sets CV level for the
selected Step.
STEP Push Button
Use this button to manual advance the
sequencer to the next position.
GATE Output
Connect this to the EG Trigger input on your synth.
Output is 5V.
CLOCK IN
This is the clock input. Use a 5V clock signal, or a signal
from an LFO.
To Sync to your DAW we recommend you use a MIDI-CV
or MIDI-Trigger converter, such as our M2CV or MT9. Use
MIDI-CV Gate input, and control Stepping via MIDI Note!
TEMPO 1/2 IN
When this socket sees 5V, the sequencer will run at half speed.
You can patch the CV Output back into here to half the tempo
when the CV slider is over approx. 50% or use a control signal
from your modular.
RESET IN Socket
When this socket
sees a 5V signal,
the sequencer will
reset to Step 1.

Power connector as found on Medic Modules
Specification;
Width: 38HP
Depth: 25mm
Weight: 285g
Voltage: -/+12V
Power Consumption: +12V, 15mA / -12V, 28mA
Doepfer style power cable included.
Screws not included.
Mounting/Connection tips;
The supplied power cable is keyed.
That means it can only be fitted one
way! (Unless you use excessive force).
Pin one is at the top on our modules
(Doepfer fit their sockets upside-
down).
Medic Modules use a 14 pin 'boxed'
header on the PCB.
The two ends of the power cable are
different. Plug the 14pin socket end
into the Module power header.
Plug the larger 16pin socket into
your case power supply.
Note: Physically disconnect your
power supply/case from the mains
electricity.
Ensure you connect up the module
correctly!
Ensure it is screwed into the case.
Ensure no metal parts can short out
the solder joints on the rear.
Ensure your case is 100% functional
before fitting the module.
It has been found over the last 15
years of making modules, that around
90% of module problems have typically
the following user problems;
Power cable connected wrong,
faulty power supply, other poor quality
modules fitted in the case affecting
other modules.
Overview:
EKG is a Sequencer medical module.
It has some original and unique modes that can be selected individually for each step.
CV OUT & RANGE
Connect the CV out to your modular synth's VCO to
control Pitch, or to Cut-Off on your Filter.
RANGE changes the range from approx. 5V to
approx. 10V. Typically use the lower range to
control Pitch, and the higher range to control cut-off.
MODEs Explained.
1/ This essentially a Rest. No Gate sent out. OFF.
Note, CV is still sent.
2/
The step is played once, with one Gate being x1
sent out.
3/
The step is played twice, with two Gates being x2
sent out.
4/
The step is played thrice, with three Gates being x3
sent out.
5/
The step is played four times, with four Gates x4
being sent out.
6/
The step is entirely missed and the sequencer SKIP
instead jumps to the next step.
7/
The sequencer plays backwards all the REV(erse)
way to step one.
8/
Sequencer resets to step One. This step is RESET
not 'played'. Use this to change sequence length.
