The basic position of the controls shown on the previous
page is a good starting point as it generates a well-known
standard synthesizer sound. The VCO uses a combination
of sawtooth and rectangle with a slow pulsewidth
modulation to obtain a fatter sound. The frequency
modulation of the VCO if off. The VCF has a light resonance
and is modulated by the ADSR. The linear modulation of the
VCF (LM) is off. The VCF tracking is on (i.e. the VCF
frequency follows the VCO frequency). The VCA is also
controlled by the ADSR and has no initial gain. LFO1 is not
used in this patch, LFO2 is used to control the PWM of the
VCO. The ADSR range switch is set to medium, the ADSR
has a short Attack time, a moderate Decay time and
medium settings for Sustain and Release.
To obtain a sound both a CV and a Gate signal is required.
CV and Gate can be supplied via the A-100 bus or the
sockets at the front panel (please refer to the jumper
settings in the appendix if you want to control the module
from the A-100 bus).
Change the settings of the controls to find out how they
affect the sound. You may e.g. some VCO frequency
modulation by increasing the VCO FM control and play
around with different frequencies and waveforms of LFO1.
Please look at the DARK ENERGY user's manual for more
examples. It is available on our website as a pdf file for
download. DARK ENERGY is the stand-alone version of the
module A-111-5 and has exactly the same sound generation
unit.
