VCO 2

A-111

4. Controls

1

Range

Footage (the octave of the fundamental) is controlled
with this knob. Seven settings are available, covering
a very wide frequency range.

2

Tune • 3 Fine

Use these two controls to tune the VCO. The Tune
control 2 is for coarse tuning, and can alter the
VCO’s frequency roughly

± ½ octave. The Fine control

3

is for fine tuning.

For total accuracy, an electronic tuner is
recommended.

P

If two or more oscillators are controlled by
the same control voltages, and set to the
same footage, you can use the Fine knob to
de-tune one or more of the oscillators
relative to each other. This can produce
vibrato and chorus-like effects, perfect for
soundscapes and generally rich timbres.

4

CV 2

The pitch of the VCO is controlled by the voltages
present at inputs ! and ". The level of CV input " can
be controlled with the Attenuator 4 .

5

PW

Use control 5 to adjust the pulse width of the
rectangle wave which is output at socket = (see fig. 2
in chapter 3.1).

6

PCV

The pulse width of the rectangle wave can also be
altered or modulated by voltage control (see chapter 6,
User examples). Patch a CV in at input & and adjust
its level with the attenuator 6.

7

Lin. FM

Use attenuator 7 to adjust the amplitude of the
linear FM signal patched into socket §.
