Making Connections
Ideally,
Rings
would need three input signals:
1.
A trigger signal on the
STRUM input, which indicates
that the currently playing note should fade away,
and that a new note is starting.
2.
A CV signal on the
V/OCT input, which controls the
frequency of the note.
3.
An audio signal on the
IN input, which will hit, strike
or caress the resonator.
Because it might not always be possible to get these
three signals in your setup,
Rings
makes the following
assumptions:
1.
If nothing is patched to the
IN audio input, the
module will synthesize an excitation signal
whenever a note is strummed. This excitation signal
is either a low-pass filtered pulse or a burst of noise,
depending on the resonator type.
2.
If nothing is patched to the
STRUM audio input, the
module will determine that a new string should be
strummed either by:
●
Detecting note changes on the
V/OCT input, or
●
Detecting sharp transients within the
IN audio
signal if nothing is patched to the
V/OCT input.
