Connect signal to the L IN and it will be normalised to R IN, unless
you connect a different signal to R IN. Turn the INPUT knob to
increase input level. Ikarie is super sensitive to the input level and
the character of the filter changes a lot under different settings of
the INPUT. Going from silent to 5 times gain, Ikarie offers clean
and balanced resonances when turned mid way, and overdriven
character that does not lose bass, but keeps the resonant sweep
in the high pass setting. The input gain can be also used to amplify
most line level signals to the optimal operational level for this filter.
2 OUTPUTS
- L OUT, R OUT
Listen thru L OUT only for both left and right channels mixed
together. Connect cables to both L OUT and R OUT for stereo
output. Going into L IN and only listening to L OUT results in
parallel filtering with two resonant peaks.
3 CUTOFF
The CUTOFF knob provides an open filter in the centre position
and renders LP (lowpass) filter sweep when turning CCW (counter
clockwise) and HP (highpass) filter sweep when turned CW
(clockwise). LP mode will cut high frequencies from the frequency
spectrum and HP mode will cut low frequencies from the spectrum.
Please note: the filters are voltage controlled with CV – MOD, V/OCT
or STEREO – thus centre position of the knob does not always
translate into an open filter.
