7.11. The VCA section
Like the
section, the VCA section provides an additional way to route
internal/external signals through the MiniBrute 2. These signals can be patched to any input
jack and used to modulate those destinations.
But unlike the signals that arrive at the Ext In jack, signals sent into the VCA section do not
show up at the Ext slider, they do not pass through the filter, and they are not processed by
the AMP section. They can be patched to those locations with a patch cable from the
jack into the appropriate input jack, if you like. But their main function is to provide
access to the patch bay for incoming control signals.
7.11.1. In 1 / In 2
In 1 and In 2 are identical in function, so we will cover them both here. Their purpose is
to receive up to two input signals, combine those signals into one signal, and send it to a
destination from the VCA Out jack.
7.11.2. CV
The CV input jack allows an internal/external signal to control the level of the VCA Out jack.
The CV signal can be an LFO or some other Control Voltage source.
7.11.3. VCA Out
This jack will output the combined signals of the In 1 and In 2 jacks at their raw input levels
unless they are controlled by an input voltage at the CV jack.
