Radiator Laser Synthesizer
User Manual
CV Inputs
There are six CV inputs in Radiator. These are input on three stereo 3.5mm minijacks. The signals are
input as CV1/4, 2/5 and 3/6. The connections are as follows:
CV Input
Tip Signal
Ring Signal
LFO
CV1/4
CV1
CV4
1
CV2/5
CV2
CV5
2
CV3/6
CV3
CV6

The CV inputs are hard-wired to LFOs as shown above. Normally if you are using mono minijacks the
tip signal can be used. If you want multiple control over the LFO you can use a stereo cable possibly
with a dual mono to stereo adapter to allow two CV signals to be input at once.
Mapping of CV Input Signals
When using built-in LFO waveforms, the CV tip and ring signals can be used to modulate the oscillator
speed, warp and level controls. When using the LFO input as an external waveform input the tip signal
is always used as the signal source.
LFO Outputs
The signal generated by each LFO is available as a dedicated 3.5mm minijack output from Radiator.
This can be used to drive external synthesizers or analog gear. The maximum output level is 10Vpp (+/-
5V and the output impedance is 1K. The signal is exactly the same waveform that is applied to the
internal modulation matrix. Each LFO has a dedicated output jack which is always active.
Audio Inputs
The LFO can be driven by audio signals input on the two 1/4” audio input jacks. The audio controls are
mapped via the warp functions, and some of the warp types modify the LFO signal in response to audio
inputs. Audio inputs are hard-wired to the three LFOs as follows:
•
LFO1
- audio in L and R
•
LFO2
- audio in L
•
LFO3
- audio in R
