FINALISER R-EQ - PATCHING EXAMPLES

3 VCO Plus dualSubBass patch - Mono in / Stereo out Mode

Finaliser R-EQ  in Mono In / Mono Out Mode

Here we are using the Finaliser in Mono in / Mono Out Mode, with the Equaliser and Enhancer engaged.

The Finaliser is used to add some reverb and a little EQ and enhancement to what is a very fat sounding patch, there are three 

VCO’s fed into the Ring SM Module, which is used as a mixer (Inputs 1, 2 and 3) but we have also patched in the Ramp wave 

from VCO to the Ring SM  “X” Input, and this is acting as a trigger for the Sub bass generators, so we also get Sub waveforms at 

-1 and -2 octaves below the incoming waveform, so we have the equivalent of 5 VCO’s spanning five octaves! And each of the 

levels can be adjusted from the Ring SM, with the output being fed into the Input of the Sonic XV Diode Ladder filter.

We are using 2 x DH-ADSR Envelopes in regular ADSR Mode, one to control the filter and the second controlling the VCA 

output against time.

If the Finaliser becomes overloaded because of the addition of high levels of EQ or Enhancement then the red Peak LED will 

illuminate, and beyond this point distortion may occur - this can be countered by reducing the signal level to the input of the 

Finaliser R-EQ, in this case by reducing either the Audio 1 or Master control levels on the MiniMod VCA

Note:  The numbers used to illustrate control knob positions do not relate to the markings on the module itself, but are simply a scale from zero to 10 with 5 
being the control centre position. For attenuverters the control positions are  -10 to +10, with zero being centre position for the control knob.
