Understanding the Mimeophon
Inputs and Outputs
The Mimeophon has two
inputs
and two
outputs
.
The inputs are normalled for mono use when you patch only the Left input.
The Mimeophon is set up for easy patching of Mono-to-Mono, Mono-to-Stereo, or Stereo-to-Stereo.
For Stereo to Stereo, patch the left and right sides of a stereo signal to the Left and Right Inputs, and monitor both Left and
Right Outputs.
For Mono to Stereo, use the Left(Mono) Input, and both Left and Right Outputs. The mono signal will be passed through both
Repeat channels. Using Skew, Halo, or Ping Pong will result in a stereo image at the Left and Right Outputs.
For Mono to Mono, simply use the Left Input, and the Left Output. You may also set up a Dual Mono path by using the Right
Input and Output for a second signal and use Skew to set independent Rates for Left and Right channels . In this case note
that Halo and Ping Pong will both cause some repeats of each Input to make it to the opposite Output.
The Mix combo pot sets the balance between the input signals and the Repeats that will appear at the outputs. When a
signal is patched to the Mix CV input, the combo pot acts as attenuator for that signal.
Zones
At any given time the Mimeophon is playing back Repeats from one of a number of color-coded ZONES, select ed by the
Zone
control and indicated by the color of the
Zone Window
.
Switching Zones via the Zone control allows for large and instantaneous changes in repeat size without doppler/pitching
effects, allowing quick smooth access to repeat sizes from microsound (shorter than 2 milliseconds) to phrase length (as long
as 41 seconds).
In Zones 0 and 1 , Mimeophon can create stuttering and phasing effects, flange, multi-dimensional distortion, and even
Karplus-Strong synthesis. Zones 2-4 allow typical delay/echo effects. Zones 5-7 allow for creation of looped phrases and ever-
evolving layered sound passag es .
