Mutable Instruments Edges - Manual (Page 2)

About Edges
Edges provides 4 channels of voltage controlled digital
sounds.
Channels 1 to 3 are square/rectangle oscillators. Chan-
nel 4 is either a NES-style triangle wave or a digital
LFSR noise source. The 4 channels are sent to a built-in
mixer.
Installation
Edges requires a -12V / +12V / +5V power supply (2x8
pin connector). The ribbon cable connector must be
aligned so that the red stripe of the ribbon cable (-12V)
is on the same side of the module’s power header as the
“Red stripe” marking on the board.
The power consumption is as follows:
-12V: 25mA; +12V: 25mA; +5V: 45mA.

Front panel
A. Channels 1 to 4 gate input (note on/off). These inputs
have 1>2>3>4 normalling - thus a gate signal connected
to the channel 1 gate input will also be applied to chan-
nels 2, 3, 4 unless a jack is connected into their inputs.
B. Channels 1 to 4 V/Oct frequency CV. These inputs also
have 1>2>3>4 normalling.
C. Channels 1 to 4 frequency modulation CV. These
inputs are independent.
D. Frequency control.
E. Cross-modulators. From top to bottom: channel 1>2
hardsync, channel 1x2 ring-modulation, channel 1x3
ring-modulation.
F. Channels 1 to 4 individual outputs. Plugging a jack
here removes the channel from the global mix.
G. H. Mixer input levels, and mixer global output.
I. Waveform selection switches. The LEDs above the
switches are lit whenever the corresponding channel is
playing.
Changing waveforms
Press the waveform selection switch to cycle through
the different waveforms available on each channel.
For channel 1 to 3, the waveforms are pulses with a duty
cycle of 50%, 66%, 75%, 87%, 95% or a CV-controlled
value (channel 4’s frequency input doubles as a PWM
control). Interesting PWM effects can be obtained by
using hardsync between channels 1 and 2 too.
For channel 4, the waveforms are: sine, triangle, NES
triangle, S&H noise, NES LSFR (Linear feedback shift
register) with long cycle, NES LSFR with short cycle.
