D
: Audio-Pulse-Signal of VCO 2
RCO 2:
Audio-Output-Signal of RCO 2
ENV 2:
continuous control voltage of envelope 2
VCO 2 KV: (Key Voltage) control voltage that sets the pitch of VCO2. This voltage changes
proportionally to the pitch: the higher the pitch, the higher the voltage.
VCO 2 PV: (Previous Voice) Audio-Saw-Signal of VCO2 of the ”neighbouring“ voice. This
way, individual voices of the SUNSYN can manipulate eachother. The voices
are modulated in a cyclic way, this means voice 1 is modulated by voice 8, voice
2 is modulated by voice 1 etc.
Ext In:
The signal that’s sent into the SUNSYN’s External Input can be routed into the
signal path by using this source. This signal can be an audio signal or a control
voltage. When the envelope follower is active, a control voltage is extracted
from the signal.
LFO 2:
control voltage of LFO 2.
This way, you have simultaneous access to two of the 16 ‘plugs’. All important audio signals
or control voltages are available for modulation of other parameters. It’s interesting to know
that these (and all other signals within Routing Elements) are physical voltages. This implicates
that all modulations are physical processes with their tolerances, accidental or chaotic pheno-
menons and not just virtual simulations. Hence the dynamics of the resulting sounds are not
limited by calculation errors etc. There’s no difference between audio signals and control
voltages. Both can modulate eachother.
Both ”cables“ of the sources are mixed together with a ratio of 1:1. This signal is now sent to
a modulation
destination.
One out of eight possible destinations can be chosen.
The intensity of the modulation (= the amount) is controlled by the
modifier.
You could think of a Modifier as an electronic control device that’s inserted between the
sources and destinations of the modulation path. It defines the intensity/amount by which the
mixed sources modulate the destination.
We want to adjust the modulation intensity. The offers several possibilities for this:
• The easiest way is to set a fixed value with the amount knob
(Soft-Controller)
. This amount
defines how much the output signal of the sources affects the destination. We’ll name it
‘Routing-Amount’.
• Now we have the possibility to change this voltage level (the Routing-Amount) dynamically.
This can be done with the help of a midi controller. In the so called Control Element, the
midi values are added to the routing amount. This means you can control all of this by midi
controllers and/or velocity. The intensity by which these controllers affect the routing
amount, is also user-definable. This is named ‘Controller-/Velocity-Amount’.
