•  P.Wheel CV In/Range

:

—Connect a CV input to adjust the oscillator Rate as if using the pitch-wheel
—Input effects are in addition to those applied by the Rate CV inputs
—Set the pitch-wheel range using the 

Range

 knob (see above)

•  Waveform CV In

:

Ammo

 has been set up to provide smooth cross-faded modulation between waveforms

—Best results are achieved by keeping the modulation to within the “similar LFO group”, so use very small input values

•  Rate CV In

:

The top connector is the audio input jack for true FM; below is the CV input jack for CV rate modulation

—Both can be used at the same time; many of the included example synth Combinator patches add FM via the audio  
  input and vibrato via the CV input
—Use front panel 

Rate CV In Amount

 knob to adjust input level

•  Depth CV In

:

The top connector is the audio input jack for true AM; below is the CV input jack for CV rate modulation

—Both can be used at the same time
—Use front panel 

Depth CV In Amount

 knob to adjust input level

•  Phase CV In

:

CV input jack for phase modulation

—Use front panel 

Phase CV In Amount

 knob to adjust input level

•  Output CV In

:

CV input jack and trim knob for master output control

Outputs

•  Bipolar CV1–4 Out

:

—Four separate outputs for bipolar CV values (-64 to +64)
—If available, select “Bipolar” as the CV input type of the target device
—Click the 

INV

 radio button to the right of Bipolar CV Out 4 to invert its output (the active click area  

  extends well above and to the right of the LED itself, shown here in blue, so you don’t need to pre 

 

  cisely hit the small lamp directly)

•  Unipolar CV1–4 Out

:

—Four separate outputs for unipolar CV values (0–64 / 0–127)
—If available, select “Unipolar” as the CV input type of the target device for full range 0–127, otherwise the usable
  range is limited to just the positive Ammo output range
—Click the 

INV

 radio button to the right of Unipolar CV Out 4 to invert its output (the active click area extends well   

  below and to the right of the LED itself, shown here in green, so you don’t need to precisely hit the small lamp directly)

•  Audio Out 1–4

—Four identical audio outputs

The oscillator signal is sent to all CV and audio outputs regardless of which 

Range

 you have selected; the internal signal path 

is entirely at audio rate. The CV outputs downsample the audio signal to Reason’s standard 1/64 CV rate.
