6) Perhaps the most interesting function of this module is hard clipping. Acting on the Decay, it
will be light on 1 and the opposite, very sharp on 5. Muted Off. The RESO / PW / LIMITING
combinations must be tested to understand the many possibilities offered. The effect can be
subtle or radical.
7) PW CTRL changes the total width of the trig pulse. In low settings, the narrower pulse width
will give the impression of a softer sound (a lighter strike from the "bass drum"). Conversely,
increasing the adjustment, you will get a large pulse width, bringing a heavier sound, a
stronger strike.
Be careful, however, the PW set to the maximum causes unpleasant saturation*
8)
Input (jack 3,5mm) of the Trig signal (de +5V à +12V). You connected your impulsion source.
9) Output level. 9) The ABD gives all its power when this level is high (to make tests gradually in
advance)
10) Output (jack 3,5mm).
11) This LED indicates the presence of a pulse in 8)
Example of use
For a first approach :
- not set the pitch too low,
- keep the resonance low enough,
- gradually add "click"
- and a mean value for the pulse width (PW) ...
Feel free to experiment, the variants being very numerous !
