C olor & Noise Ring
Ring Mod is now served. And it fuses with Cross-Modulation (think ATC-1X) brilliantly. This “module” is
where the V30’s most sophisticated sound expansion happens, where rich harmonic content gets richer.
A patch point for
OSC1 (Oscillator 1) frees Oscillator 1 from the doldrums of its fi xed role as the pitch
standard bearer, rede fi ning and repurposing the foundation tone as an able audio frequency player.
ENV1 > OSC2
Attenuator for the routing of Envelope 1 to the frequency of Oscillator 2. Formerly labeled as “SWEEP“
on the Midimini. Upshot: The
fi lter envelope can modulate the pitch of
OSC2
and fi lter contour in the
strength desired in this Color area, and the Filter/Modi fi er.
OSC3 > OSC2
Attenuator for the routing of Oscillator 3 to the frequency of Oscillator 2. The Model D sends Oscillator 3
to both the 2nd and 3rd Oscillators in it’s OSC 3 CONTROL mode, a feature which yet can be
accomplished on our V30 in
CON using MODMIX . The isolation of OSC2 here in COLOR makes for
individualized cross-modulation and tonal enrichment.
RING MOD
Sets the mix, or heterodyne* of OSC 2 and OSC 3, and outputs the sum and di ff erence of the
frequencies present in each waveform, making it a heroic harmonic thickener and warmer.
NOISE
Noise is useful—there, we’ve said it—by itself or with a side of Resonance. Synthesize the groove grease,
the “frying bacon” of a jazz drummer’s somnolent snare brush work, or a punishing thunderstorm.
White light is a composite of all colors (as long as it shirks prisms and rainbows), likewise, White Noise is
a collective of all frequencies of sound at equal amplitude levels. Because white noise contains all tones,
it’s the perfect neighbor-noise mask. Pink Noise is every bit as frequency inclusive, but its power per
hertz decreases as its frequency increases. Translation: the lower freqs. are louder and more persuasive,
and with successive octaves widening—containing more frequencies—Pink Noise boasts equal power
per octave, which to most ears sounds dead even, or
fl at. Your heartbeat is very pink noisy.
WHT - PNK
Three position selects White, Pink, or center o ff for handy cuto ff .
NOISE
White or Pink Noise Output patch point.
OSC1
Oscillator 1 Output patch point. No longer locked out of the modulation game. Use with abandon.
*Heterodyning is a signal processing technique invented by Canadian inventor-engineer Reginald Fessenden that creates new frequencies by combining or mixing two frequencies.

💡
The NOISE Generator also pumps out RED
NOISE, which is highly low-pass filtered. It pops
over to the MOD MIX when PINK NOISE is
selected, otherwise PINK noise goes to MODMIX
(seems crazy, but that's what the MINI does).
