$2,650.00
Description
THE DEVICE FEATURES:
-
THREE ROWS OF 8-STEP C.V. GENERATORS WITH INDIVIDUAL CV RANGE AND GLIDE CONTROLS FOR EACH ROW.
-
START/STOP, STEP, RESET STYLIZED BUTTONS MADE FROM VINTAGE KEYBOARD KEYS VINTAGE KEYBOARD KEYS AS BUTTONS, A UNIQUE DESIGN ELEMENT THAT FUNCTIONS TO PROVIDE EASE OF ACCESS AND SPEEDY RESPONSE TO THE ESSENTIAL FUNCTIONS: START/STOP, STEP, RESET. EACH BUTTON WITH A DEDICATED CV INPUT.
-
AN INTERNAL CLOCK OSCILLATOR WITH A FREQUENCY RANGING FROM .05 HZ TO 45 HZ. THE INTERNAL CLOCK MAY BE MODULATED VIA THE ONBOARD C.V. INPUT. THIS OSCILLATOR MAY ALSO BE ROUTED EXTERNALLY VIA THE CLOCK OUTPUT.
-
TRIGGER ASSIGNMENT AND POSITION VISUALIZED ALONG THE BOTTOM ROW OF THREE-POSITION (ON-OFF-ON) MINI SWITCHES. EXTERNAL CLOCK INPUT WITH MANUAL STEP FUNCTIONALITY.
-
AN EXTERNAL CLOCK INPUT FUNCTION, WHICH ALLOWS CHRONOGRAPH TO BE UTILIZED AS A ‘GRAPHIC’ VOLTAGE-CONTROLLED OSCILLATOR—THEREBY ENABLING THE USER TO CREATE AND MANIPULATE COMPLEX WAVESHAPES.
-
VOLTAGE-CONTROLLED ‘SKIP,’ WHICH IS BUILT ON A SEPARATE INTERNAL HIGH-SPEED OSCILLATOR. THIS SECONDARY VCO MAY BE MODULATED VIA THE ‘EXT. TRIG IN: SKIP’ INPUT, IN ORDER TO CREATE COMPLEX GLITCH PATTERNS.
-
THE HIGH-SPEED OSCILLATOR MAY ALSO BE USED TO PRODUCE RANDOMIZED AND/OR HIGHLY CHAOTIC RHYTHMIC EVENTS. (THIS SUB-CIRCUIT DESIGN WAS INFLUENCED BY THE SKIPPING FEATURE FOUND IN THE VENERABLE ARP 1601 SEQUENCER).
-
LED LAMP INDICATORS FOR EACH STEP POSITION.
-
LED LAMP INDICATORS CORRESPONDING TO THE THREE TRIGGER SECTIONS.
-
A VERSATILE FREQUENCY DETECTOR AND DIVIDER CIRCUIT, WHICH GENERATES SQUARE WAVE SIGNALS DERIVED FROM THE FREQUENCY TRANSMITTED TO ITS SIGNAL INPUT JACK.
-
END PULSE OUTPUT FUNCTIONALITY.
EM-77 M.G.T. IS A BI-DIRECTIONAL SEQUENTIAL SWITCH, WHICH ALLOWS THE USER TO ROUTE EITHER AUDIO OR C.V. SIGNALS IN A SEQUENTIAL MANNER.
THIS PROCESS CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED BY ROUTING ONE SOURCE TO TWO, THREE OR FOUR DESTINATIONS (1:2, 1:3, 1:4). ALTERNATIVELY, TWO, THREE OR FOUR SOURCES MAY BE ROUTED TO ONE DESTINATION (2:1, 3:1, 4:1).
THE SWITCHING CIRCUITRY MAY BE TRIGGERED BY APPLYING A CLOCK SIGNAL, OR MANUALLY VIA TACTILE PUSH.
FOR ENHANCED CONTROL, M.G.T. ALSO FEATURES ONBOARD ‘RESET’ AND ‘INHIBIT’ INPUTS. THE LATTER ‘INHIBIT’ FEATURE ENABLES THE USER TO FREEZE AND UN-FREEZE THE BINARY COUNTER.
