ADSR envelope generator:
The ADSR module is a versatile four stage envelope generator with manual controllable
Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release stages. The envelope generatore could also implement
a 'gated' looped mode where the output will cycle through the stages while the GATE input
is HIGH. To obtain the looping envelope the sustain knob should to be put to zero. Another
interesting option is the ability to have a second 'timing' capacitor for the ADSR stages that
lengthen the times fivefold.
Manual Controls: The module has individual
controls for Attack, Decay, Sustain and
Release stages and a LED that follows the
OUT voltage. It's a clear indication of the
evolution of the envelope during time.
Input/Output: There two gate inputs (OR'ed)
and two identical OUT signals. To use the
LOOP and SLOW functions the user have to
'short' the relative patch points as indicated
on the board. Tech Specs: The ADSR output level goes, as the other modulators on the
NS1nanosynth, from 0 to 5V. If you connect this directly (i.e. without attenuation) to the
VCA CV input you will obtain, as designed, an overdrive in the highest 0.5V zone. You can
use the ATTENS or the CVDIV modules to adapt this level to the VCA. This is normally
indicated in many hardwired synthesizers as "EG AMOUNT" or "ENVELOPE AMOUNT".

LFO low frequency oscillator:
NS1nanosynth have two identical LFOs with triangular and square output waves. The
frequency goes from a slow modulating 0.4 Hz to an audio rate 160Hz, controllable through
the FREQ1/2 knob of each LFO. There are doubled outputs for each waveform.
Manual Controls: the FREQ1 and FREQ2 knobs
sets the LFO frequency for each LFO. The
individual LED shows the triangular output level
of the LFO in real time. Input/Output: There
triangular (TRI) and square (SQU) waves output
for each LFO, the signals are simply doubled on
the patch points. TechSpecs: The waveforms at
the output of this module goes from 0 to 5V.

ATTENs passive attenuators:
There are two passive attenuators on the NS1nanosynth, each controlled by a knob
(ATTEN1 and ATTEN2). The signal is attenuated to zero when the knob is in the 7 o'clock
position.
