Expert Sleepers Silent Way v2.4.3 - Manual (Page 90)

This feature is activated by setting Beats to a value other than ‘Off’. The value of Beats
multiplied by the time set by Divisor (e.g. 1/4 is a quarter note) gives the reset interval.
Outputs
Each output (clock/run) has three controls that
determine the output routing and signal levels.
The first sets which plug-in output will carry the
signal in question, or “Off” if that signal is not
required. Unless in ES-4 or ES-5 Mode (see be-
low), the valid settings are “Output 1” or “Output
2”, for the left and right channels of the plug-in’s stereo output respectively. In ES-4 Mode,
any of the ES-4’s outputs or any gate output of attached ESX-8GT expanders can be se-
lected. Likewise, in ES-5 Mode any of the ES-5’s own gate outputs or that of any attached
expander can be selected.
The other two output controls set the output levels used for low and high logic states.
If using the plug-in to generate DIN sync from an Expert Sleepers ES-3, setting the ‘High’
controls to 0.5 will generate approximately +5V, which is the nominal level of a DIN sync
clock or run/stop signal. Similarly if using outputs 3, 4 or 5 of an ES-4, if those outputs are
in their default unipolar configuration.
When using an ES-5 or ESX-8GT output, the signal may be inverted by setting the ‘low’
value higher than the ‘high’ value.
Mute Clocks
The ‘Mute’ button forces the clock output to its ‘low’ value.
Swing
These controls allow you to add ‘shuffle’ or ‘swing’ timing to the
clock output.
Swing has two controls. The knob sets the amount of swing, in
percent. 50% means no swing (the middle sixteenth note is 50% of
the way between the neighbouring notes, as normal). Higher val-
ues of swing make the middle note later; lower values make it ear-
lier. At 100%, the middle note is right on top of the following note.
The dropdown menu chooses between sixteenth and eighth note swing.
