AUDIO OUT/FULL OUT (PLEASE READ!)
There are 2 outputs on the MOTM-510, labeled AUDIO OUT and FULL OUT. What’s the
difference, and how do you know which one to use?
The difference is the AUDIO OUT has an AC coupled, 16Khz 2-pole lowpass filter. The FULL
OUT has no filter, and is DC coupled. So??!?
The FULL OUT should ONLY be used for DC control voltages or
LFO outputs.
WARNING! IF YOU USE THE FULL
OUT AND CONNECT IT TO
AMPLIFIERS/ MIXERS/DIGITAL
RECORDERS/AUDIO

BAD THING HERE TO YOUR
EQUIPMENT. YOU HAVE BEEN
WARNED!
The AD538 IC can easily generate large signals with large DC offsets. Also, the wide
bandwidth of the AD538 can generate harmonics up to 400Khz. Yep, I said 400KHz.
So, it’s pretty simple: use AUDIO OUT unless you are warping LFOs (loads of fun!). Then, you
NEED to use the FULL OUT.
