Pickup

There is a pickup and double-sided adhesive tape included to the Peak+Hold module package by 

standard, so it is easy  to connect the P+H to any percussive instrument. The pickup is equipped with 
1/4' jack and 2m cable.

Suggestions:

on tabletop

wooden board

bongo drum

cymbal

Recommended filter settings for different instrument inputs (Knob   )

 

Attaching the Pickup

Cut off a piece of ca 
2,5x2,5 cm² from the tape

Pull off the paper from one
side

Fix it on the metallic side 
of the pickup

Cut off the overhanging 
edges

Pull off the second paper

Fix it on the instrument 

Note: 

The pickup cable is very microphonic; to avoid unwanted triggers it should be fastened, e.g. 

on the drum stand.

Frequency-selective mode

It is possible to limit the audio signal's frequency range for the

further internal processing. This allows advanced settings especially
when working with two P+H modules. As well as this, unwanted noise
may be   minimized by reducing very low or very high frequencies.

There are two trimmers

Note: There

is no ability to listen directly to the filtered audio signal; it only affects the processed CV outputs. The
Audio Out   always provides the full-frequency range signal. Please also read chapter
