AMPLITUDE ENVELOPE GENERATOR
ENV OUT (Amplitude EG)
This output provides a control-voltage signal created by the current Amplitude
Envelope Generator panel settings.
CV OUTPUT: 0V to +8V
NOTE: When the VCA MODE switch is set to AMP ENV, this signal controls the level
of both VCA 1 and VCA 2. When the Output module VCA MODE switch is set to SPLIT,
the Filter Envelope Generator signal controls the level of VCA 1 (Left output), and the
Amplitude Envelope Generator signal controls the level of VCA 2 (Right output).
TIP: An inverted EG signal (-ENV) can be created by patching from this +ENV OUT
jack to an INPUT jack on one of three inverting Attenuators located in a Utilities
module. Then set the ATTENUATOR knob to its minimum (fully counterclockwise)
position, and patch from the OUTPUT jack to the desired destination.
ENV END OUT (Amplitude EG)
Once the Amplitude Envelope Generator has run its course and returned to
its lowest level, a Gate signal is created and continuously output via this jack
until a new envelope cycle is initiated via a keyboard or trigger input. This Gate
signal can be used to initiate another event, such as advancing a sequence to
the next step.
TIP: Patch from the ENV END OUT jack to the TRIGGER IN jack on a single Envelope
to create a looping envelope. Using shorter Attack and Release settings will yield
more rhythmical results.
GATE OUTPUT: 0V to +8V
TRIGGER IN (Amplitude EG)
Normally, the Amplitude Envelope Generator is initiated by pressing a key on
the keyboard. A Gate or Control Voltage > 2.3V connected to this input can
be used to initiate the Amplitude Envelope Generator as well.
NOTE: Patching into the TRIGGER IN jack will override Matriarch’s Keyboard Gate
connection to the EG.
CV/GATE INPUT: 0V to +8V
