A Manual bit depth control

Controls the degree of bit depth reduction, from eight bits to one. This control also acts 

as an offset for externally applied control voltages.

B Manual Nyquist frequency control

Controls the degree of sampling rate reduction, from 22kHz to 200 Hz. This control 

also acts as an offset for externally applied control voltages. Use this parameter when you feel 

that the frequency domain should be periodic.

C Bit depth CV attenuator

Controls the amount of control voltage applied to the Bit Depth parameter. 

D Nyquist frequency CV attenuator

Controls the amount of control voltage applied to the Nyquist parameter. 

E Bit depth CV input

Accepts a voltage between 0 and 5 volts for control of the Bit Depth parameter. Larger 

control voltage ranges, as well as bipolar signals, can be managed by using the CV attenuator 

and offset controls.

F Nyquist frequency CV input

Accepts a voltage between 0 and 5 volts for control of the Nyquist parameter. Larger 

control voltage ranges, as well as bipolar signals, can be managed by using the CV attenuator 

and offset controls.

G Volvulus mode selector

The configuration of these three switches determines the transfer function when the 

“Devil On” switch is enabled. Eight combinations are possible, with a detailed explanation 

available on Page 7.

H “Devil On” waveshaper enable switch

This switch enables the bitwise waveshaper, introducing nonlinearities of unmatched 

recklessness. 

J  Rectification toggle switch

This effect can be thought of as taking the “absolute value” of a bipolar signal. It can 

operate independently of the bitwise waveshaper.

K Input attenuator

This control moderates the amount of audio signal presented to the Malgorithm. Note 

that the amplifier circuit has some gain, so clipping will take place if hot signals are used with 

little attenuation.

L Audio input

Insert your signal here. A maximum amplitude of 10vpp is possible before clipping.

M Audio output

The results of the Malgorithmʼs process can be retrieved here.
