PULSAR • 23 USER MANUAL
AMT (amount) knob — determines depth of modulation by the signal received on the
MOD pin.
LPF FR
(low-pass filter frequency) knob — controls the cutoff frequency of the reso-
nant low-pass filter.
MOD pin associated with the LPF FR knob: CV control of the filter cutoff frequency.
LPF Q
knob — controls the resonance level of the low-pass filter.
EXT (external) pin is the input for processing an external signal through the BASS syn-
thesis circuit. Located before the low pass filter.
OUT
pin — output of the BASS synthesis module. Located before the VOLUME knob.
VOL (volume) knob — BASS volume control.
FX knob — adjusts the send level of the BASS signal to the effects processor. It takes the
signal before the VOL knob (pre-fader). This way you can send a signal to the effects
processor while the BASS volume in the main mix is low or zero.
Regardless of DCO mode (CV MIDI PRC), this module can always be triggered via MIDI.
In CV and PRC mode, only one note on the MIDI keyboard can be associated with the
module using the learn function (LRN button above the sensors of the BASS module).
In MIDI mode, it will be a chromatic MIDI keyboard. If, in PRC mode, the MIDI channel
tied to BASS does not coincide with the MIDI channels of the rest of the synthesis
modules, it also works as chromatic MIDI keyboard where you can change the pitch of
the note.
You can control the portamento parameter through the standard portamento midi
controller (CC05).
If you assign any key of the MIDI keyboard assigned to BASS to the first channel of
the MIDI to CV converter, the key tracking signal associated with this MIDI keyboard
appears at the output of the converter.
