Connecting SCRAT to Eurorack power
Connect a 10 pin Eurorack power cable to the 2x5 power header on the
back of the module. There is an arrow indicator next to the word
STRIPE on the circuit board. Unsurprisingly, the red stripe side of
the cable goes on the side that says STRIPE. The module (and your
power supply) is protected in case you should ever connect it the
wrong way around, but it won’t turn on if you do.
Module Function
SCRAT is a 2-pole (-12 dB/Octave) multimode Steiner-Parker filter
(VCF) that offers high-pass and low-pass modes and is quite aggressive
sounding.
In addition to the built-in sound-shaping possibilities, the user can
optionally
modify
the
filter’s
character
by
plugging
passive
electronic components like diodes, capacitors or resistors into either
or both of two modifier ports on the front panel, or special pre-made
cartridges that contain small circuits made up of such components.
SCRAT also includes a pre-filter drive circuit that can be used to
further shape the sound.
