1 PHILOSOPHY AND DESIGN
FALISTRI is a fully analog multipurpose movement
manager designed to generate and edit voltages to easily
accomplish any patch. The module can be divided in two
big parts: the upper two-thirds of the panel are occupied
by two specular function generators, while the lower third
is composed by a dual cascaded frequency divider, a lin-
ear slew limiter and a four-quadrant multiplier.
2 FUNCTION GENERATORS
The generators are designed to quickly and intuitively
achieve the function needed, providing several outputs
and inputs to dynamically change their times and
trigs. The main peculiarity in this design is the way shapes
are managed:
· times are independent from shapes when sculpting
an envelope, you can freely morph from logarithmic to
linear to exponential slope, without changing the time
needed to complete Rise or Fall (and their Loop time when
used as oscillator);
· shapes are exclusive per each stage you can have
logarithmic Rise and logarithmic Fall, Linear Rise and
Logarithmic Fall or any other combination of the modes.
Of course, any blending in between these shapes is
achievable, allowing deep sculptures of sound when used
as Control Voltage as well as audio source.
The time switch scales the time factor on both rise and
fall stages in each generator.
