Introduction
2 modules in one:
Sample and Hold and Noise features
The S+H and Noise units are in de pen dent so can be used en tire ly of each other.
Controls
S+H Slew
This adds slew (or portamento) between each changing voltage held by the S+H. So
as each voltage is sampled, the changes in old to new voltage level will be smoothed
out.
Noise Level
Alters the noise level.
Sockets
S+H In
This is the signal source for the S+H. Normally the noise output would be used for a random output.
S+H Clock In
Each clock or gate pulse will make the S+H sample the input signal then hold it till the next clock signal.
Normally a square wave signal would be fed into here, like the LFO-NZ square wave output.
S+H Sig Out
This is the output from the S+H unit.
Noise Out
This is an audio output from the white noise generator. This can be fed into the S+H signal input for random
S+H.
Obtaining a stepped random signal (using the Sample and Hold Facility)
To create a stepped random voltage (as indicated on the first position of the LFO wavform switch):
Patch a Square wave LFO output into the S+H Clock input, the Noise output to the S+H Signal input. Turn the Noise
level up to about 30-50% (A higher setting causes strange - though not neccessarily - output). The S+H output signal
will appear at the S+H Out socket.
