Sequence 8 - Testing Procedures

Before you start this test, make sure that all knobs on the Sequence 8 
have been rotated fully counter clockwise and that all 3 toggle 
switches (Hold Hard, Clock Switch, Random) are in the down position.

—TESTING CV OUTPUTS—

When you first turn on the Sequence 8 it

 

should

 

be running on its 

internal clock. Let’s make sure that all 3 CV Outputs are working 
correctly. 

 

Begin by plugging in a cable into the Sequence 8’s CV 1 

Output and plug the other end of the cable into the 1V/Oct Input on an 
Oscillator, and make sure to monitor the output of the oscillator.
Since all 8 of the sequence knobs are rotated fully counter clockwise 
and the CV 1 input is set fully counter clockwise, you should get a 
stable tone out of your Oscillator. 

Rotate Step 1’s knob fully clockwise and leave the CV 1 attenuator set 
fully counter clockwise. You should still get a stable tone out of your 
Oscillator when it passes the voltage for Stage 1. If the Oscillator 
changes pitch even though the CV 1 Attenuator is turned down all the
