OVERVIEW
The Spankulator is a WiFi-enabled multi-function Eurorack module. Its main function is to
generate a trio of coordinated analog and digital signals called Spanks which can be used in an
endless variety of ways; some examples being a sequencer, an envelope generator, or a
complex rhythm generator.
FUNCTIONS
•
5 Spank types
–
Up, Down, Stretch, Toggle and Maytag
•
LFO with 3 waveforms
–
Sine, Ramp Up, Ramp Down
•
Bounce
–
A DVM plus a scalable sample and hold. DC and AC modes
•
User Mode
–
For sending sequences of Spanks and/or LFO bursts
•
Settings
–
For configuration, factory reset, etc.
FEATURES
•
128x64 graphic display enhances usability
•
WiFi and Terminal interfaces provide even richer user experiences with the addition of
computer resources like a keyboard, display and scripting.
•
All settings are stored in Flash memory so that they are retained when power is off
•
Selectable Single Shot or Repeat mode
•
External Clock mode
•
Inputs and Outputs are protected against damage during typical use
SIGNALS
•
Gate Out
–
Digital signal that consists of pulses of varying width.
•
Tog Out
–
Digital signal that toggles with the completion of every Spank.
•
CV Out
–
Analog signal (+/- 5 volt) that depends on the Spank type. Usually, it is relative
to the pulse width of the Gate Output. This signal
’
s amplitude is adjusted using the CV
Scale control.
•
Trigger In
–
Digital input. Operation is triggered with a 0 to 5 volt transition on this
input. This also serves as the External Clock when Ext Clk mode is enabled.
•
Sig In
–
Analog signal input. Range: +/- 5 volt
