Spectral Madness: Inputs and outputs
All CV inputs are calibrated for a range of +/- 5V. Voltages outside of this range are
tolerated, but will be clamped.
1. FREEZE gate input. When the input gate signal is high, stops the recording of incom-
ing audio, just as latching the FREEZE button would do.
2. GATE (TRIGGER) input. When the input is high, 1 of 4 glitch algorythms are applied
to the spectrum. Each time the gate goes high, another is randomly selected.
These algorythms are: Spectral hold and blow, Spectral shift up and aliasing, Kill larg-
est harmonic and boost second largest, Nasty high-pass
3. 4. Grain POSITION and SPECTRAL WARP (SIZE) input.
5. Grain transposition (PITCH) CV input, with V/Oct response.
6. BLEND CV input. This CV input can control one of the following functions depending
on the active blending parameter: dry/wet balance, grain stereo spread, feedback
amount and reverb amount.
7. 8. Stereo audio input. When no patch cable is inserted in the right channel input, this
input will receive the signal from the left channel.
9. 10. TEMPORAL QUANT. (DENSITY) and SPECTRAL QUANT. (TEXTURE) inputs.
11. 12. Stereo audio output.
Spectral Madness: Controls (Cont.)
This creates much more synthetic, harmonic textures. CW, beyong 12, adds warping
towards higher harmonics.
J. BLEND knob. This multi-function knob is described in the Blending parameters sec-
tion.
K. Indicator LEDs. They work as an input vu-meter. When FREEZE is active, they moni-
tor the output level. Soft-clipping occurs when the last LED is on. They can also indicate
the quality setting (red), the function assigned to the BLEND knob (green), or the value
of the four blending parameters (multicolor).
