The SEQUENCER

is straight-forward, full analogue 2-3-4 step

sequencer/waveshaper with adjustable sequence

length. Particularly interesting use of the SEQ2

is waveshaping – just apply any audio source to

the CLK IN, tweak the knobs and be amazed!

VCO1

is powerful, full analogue VCO with great

tracking over 8 octaves with simultaneous

triangle and pulsewave outputs, pulse width

modulation and exponential frequency modulation.

It sounds like real analogue beast!

MODULES IN THE PICO SYSTEM III

Use these knobs to set the voltages per step. LEDs will

give visual feedback on the currently active step. If you

apply the audio signal to the input, the sequencer will act

as a waveshaper, where the signal is converted into (up to)

4 step “staircase” with adjustable step height. This way you

can create a suboscillaors and plenty of other distinct

sounds that are in tune with your audio source.

Select a number of steps (2-3-4) in the sequence!

Patch the clock or audio signal here. Due to limited panel

space and functionality, Pico SEQ2 does not have a Gate

output. We recommend you to use stackable patchcables

to copy clock signal to envelope generators OR get gates

from Pico Trigger or Logic modules

This is the CV output

Adjust the tune of the VCO manually! 1V/oct CV

is added to the setting of this knob

Adjust Pulse Width manually! PWM CV is added

to the setting of this knob

Three position switch allow you to transpose

the pitch of the VCO one octave up or down

Patch the sequencer or any FM source here

This is PWM CV input. Experiment with different

modulation sources to get drones, rhythmic

patterns and fat analogue sound

This is Pulse wave output

This is gentle sounding Triangle wave output
