HiPass Filter
The HPF mode includes a 3rd-order 30Hz low-cut filter designed to
remove infrasub-frequencies, which can otherwise occupy a substan-
tial portion of the signal's headroom. To engage the High-Pass Filter,
simply press the HPF button [K].
Envelope Out
The Battering Ram features an Envelope output [4] that provides the
kick amplitude envelope. It is possible to invert the envelope's polarity
for ducking effects. To do this, press the Inversion button [M] (the
button is now on).
Pitch Lock
The Lock button [L] allows to lock the tuning of the kick drum:
A quick press of the Lock button [L] will lock the current pitch set by
the potentiometer [I], transforming it into an octave switcher able to
shift the pitch one octave up or down.
Note: Once you disable the pitch lock, you'll need to turn the Pitch
potentiometer past its previous position to reactivate the continuous
pitch control. The Lock button [D] will blink until the Pitch potentio-
meter [I] passes its previous position.
Gate Mode
By default, the module responds to rising edges while ignoring the
length of the gate received at the Trigger input [1]. However, it is
possible to incorporate a hold stage into the kick envelopes. To
enable this, press the Gate button [J]. This feature, when combined
with the V/Oct compatibility of the Pitch CV input [7], transforms the
Battering Ram into a versatile and powerful bassline module.
