This knob sets LFO and S&H clock frequency.
Patch external clock signal here to sync
LFO and S&H frequency to the external
clock. When external clock is applied, the
Rate knob becomes clock divider (CCW
from 12:00) or multiplier (CW from 12:00)
This is sine LFO output. LED1 indicates LFO
(sine and pulse) and S&H clock frequency.
This is the pulse wave LFO output, use it also
for clocking the sequencer. LED2 indicates
random pulse output
This is the Random Trigger output. The
frequency of the random triggers is set
by the RATE knob
This is the S&H CV output
This is the noise output

MODULATOR
is combined clock/LFO/random voltage
source module. It generates sine and pulse
LFO waves, white noise, S&H CV and random
triggers; basically, everything, you need, to
bring some uncertainty in your modular setup.
This knob sets Attack time. The incoming
CV is added to the knob setting.
This knob sets Decay time. The incoming CV
is added to the knob setting.
Select between looping mode and triggered mode! In
looping mode, when CV is applied to attack and/or decay
controls, the module can work as a drone generator
This is the manual trigger button
This is the Attack CV input
This is the Decay CV input
This is the Trigger/Gate input. If gate is applied,
the module advances to the ASR mode automatically
This is the output of the module. The LED gives visual
feedback on the output voltage
VC EG
is versatile looping AD/ASR envelope generator
with voltage control over attack and decay times. It has
automatic Trigger/Gate detection, as well as“drone mode” –
at full CW setting of the Decay knob, the envelope is full
open. In the LOOP mode you can retrigger envelopes for
even more interesting modulations.
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
