Abstract Data ADE-10 - Manual (Page 6)

Page 6 of 7
The external CV inputs of the ADE-10 should accept any CV, LFO or audio signal within a range
of approximately +/-10V, however, CV content outside the range of 0-5V DC will be clipped
and blocked internally.
The diagram below shows how a single +/-5V (10V peak to peak) AC sine wave used as an external
CV input can be attenuated and/or biased via the front panel controls to modulate within the internal
0-5V DC CV range with no need for PCB ‘jumpers’ or external signal conditioning.
n.b. For this diagram, ‘bias’ refers to the manual modulation control (e.g. STAGE 1 MOD) for each
stage and ‘level’ refers to the external CV input control (e.g. STAGE 1 CV) for each stage.
