A PULSE wave (orange) into SMPL or RUN does not affect the Cycle .
•
Sample Mode
: When the SMPL switch is up, the GTO moves (cycles) only for a very short period of time
when a pulse wave triggers the SMPL input - irrespective of the pulse length:
A PULSE wave (orange) into SMPL allows the GTO to run for a moment before being frozen again .
If the RATE is very fast, the few full cycles can occur before being frozen again .
The moment in which the waveform can run freely is fixed in length (about 0 .5ms) - this
limits the maxi-
mum speed the SMPL input can digest - if the clock signal is faster that about 2.2kHz, no more
triggering occurs
and the waveform goes flat (i .e . the CYCLE dies) .
•
INV Mode
: When the SMPL switch is down, the SMPL input works exactly the other way around: the
GTO is free except for that small moment when the trigger occurs:
The CYCLE is held for a brief moment .
