MODULES
A module is a collection of inputs, outputs, and parameters,
each of which is represented by a button on the grid. Many
modules have various optional parameters so you can tailor
them to your needs. You can also choose a module’s colour
so that it’s easy to identify on the grid. The number of buttons
a module occupies is determined by the number of inputs,
outputs, and parameters it has. See the Module Index at
www.empresseects.com/zoia-module-index for
a complete description of all the modules and their parameters.
MODULE CATEGORIES
Interface Modules: modules that import the audio, control
voltage, MIDI, stompswitch, expression pedal or grid button
presses from the outside world for use in the ZOIA.
Audio Modules: these audio processing modules are more
commonly found in the world of modular synthesis. VCAs,
lters, oscillators, and many more utilities and eects.
Control Modules: modules that generate and manipulate
CV signals within the ZOIA. Sequencers, LFOs (low-frequency
oscillators), and ADSRs (attack-decay-sustain-release) are
classic examples of control modules.
Analysis Modules: modules which take in audio and analyze
it in some way, outputting a control voltage signal.
Eect Modules: pre-built eects, such as modulations,
reverbs, distortions etc.
