PULSE   WIDTH  

  -   This   knob   sets   the   base   

pulse   width   of   the    

PULSE  

  output.    When   fully   

counter   clockwise   the   output   will   produce   a   
narrow   10%   duty   cycle   pulse,   when   fully  
clockwise   it   produces   a   pulse   with   a   90%   duty   
cycle.   A   square   wave   is   produced   with   the   
knob   in   the   12   o’clock   position.   The   knob   is   
summed   with   the   PWM   input.   

 

Inputs   &   Outputs   

 

[A]

FM   1  

  -   Linear   or   exponential   frequency   

modulation   input.   The   behaviour   is   set   by   the   

LIN/EXP  

  switch.    

  

[B]

FM   2  

  -   Exponential   frequency   modulation   

input. 

 

 

[C]

PWM  

  -   This   input   is   summed   with   the    

PULSE   

WIDTH  

  knob   to   set   the   width   of   the    

PULSE 

  

output.   The   range   is   +/-   5   V.   Note   that   the   
width   can   go   down   to   0%   and   up   to   100%   at   
which   point   no   wave   will   be   produced. 

 

 

[D]

1V/OCT  

  -   Primary   pitch   voltage   control   input.    

  

[E]

SYNC  

  -   When   the   input   waveform   crosses   

zero   the   oscillator   is   also   reset   to   zero.   

 

[F]

FLIP  

  -   This   input   functions   similarly   to   the   

SYNC   input   except   that   instead   of   resetting   
the   oscillator   to   zero   it   flips   the   direction   of   travel. 

 

 

[G]

SINE  

  -   Sine   wave   output. 

 

 

[H]

TRIANGLE  

  -   Triangle   wave   output.   

 

[I]

ZIG-ZAG  

  -   Zig-zag   wave   output.   

 

[J]

SAW  

  -   Saw   wave   output.  

[K]

PULSE  

  -   Pulse   wave   output.   The   width   of   the   pulse   is   controlled   by   a   combination   of   the   

PULSE   WIDTH  

  knob   and    

PWM  

  input.   

 

[L]

SUB  

  -   Sub-oscillator   output.   Produces   a   50%   duty   cycle   square   wave   with   a   frequency   one   

octave   below   that   of   the   primary   oscillator.
