Supplied Accessories:
1x 16-pin, Doepfer-style cable, 4x M3 screws
CALIBRATION:
AC-coupled inputs and outputs (i.e. most inputs and outputs that are used
for AC and ‘audio’ signals) use a capacitor to remove constant DC content,
leaving only the AC content of the waveform.
The inputs and outputs of the ADE-10 are DC-coupled, which allows it to use
both audio and CV signals (AC and DC) such as LFOs, gates, triggers, etc.
as input and external CV input signals - but please note that any DC content
present at the input will also be present at the output.
Additionally, a non-calibrated ADE-10 can also add a small amount of DC
content to the output waveform.
Each ADE-10 is calibrated before shipping and once set, the output should
remain at close to 0V DC with all front panel controls set to 0% and no
inputs connected.
For advice on calibrating the ADE-10 please contact Abstract Data.
PRECAUTIONS:
The ADE-10 uses the Doepfer standard for power connection and cable
orientation. The RED stripe on the supplied power cable connects to the
NEGATIVE (-12V) rail on the ADE-10 with the RED stripe facing DOWN.
This is marked on the back of the ADE-10 PCB as “-12 RED”.
(
Please see
‘POWER CONNECTOR’
on page 3 of this guide
)
The ADE-10 has diode and polyfuse protection built in but an incorrectly
connected cable may still cause damage to the module or the power supply.
The rear panel of the ADE-10 has exposed parts and connections. Please
ensure when handling the ADE-10 that the unit is held by the sides of the
front panel or the sides of the PCB.
