15.4 USING AN EXTERNAL OSCILLATOR WITH THE ANALOG FOUR MKII
PITCH
AUDIO OUT
The CV/Gate outputs and the external inputs allow an external oscillator to be used with the internal Analog
Four MKII oscillators. Use this trick when you want a different (perhaps old, quirky and unpredictable yet
charming) oscillator to provide the fundamental tone but still want the control and modulation power of the
Analog Four MKII.
In this setup example, the CV track will trig the oscillator of an external analog synth. The output of this
oscillator will be routed to the left input of the Analog Four MKII. Synth track 1 of the Analog Four MKII will
control the pitch of both the internal oscillators and the external oscillator. The filters and envelopes of
track 1 will shape both the internal and the external oscillators.
1. Connect a standard mono phone cable from the Analog Four MKII CV A output to the pitch CV control
input of the external synth.
2. Connect the output of the external oscillator to the left external input
3. Select the CV track and press
[FUNC] + [OSC1] . In this menu, depending on the specification of the
external analog synth, set TYPE to either PITCH V/OCT or PITCH Hz/V. You can read more about how to
calibrate the pitch CV so that it matches the tuning of your external CV-controlled synthesizer in the CV
CONFIG section. For more information, please see “12.6 CV CONFIG” on page 60.
4. Set the SRC parameter of the CV A page to TR1. This will make the CV track send out pitch voltages
according to the note trigs on synth track 1.
5. Select track 1. Set WAV on the OSC1 page to IN L. For oscillator 2, choose one of the internal Analog
Four MKII waveforms.
