Calibration

1. Set the FREQ potentiometer to its central position

and unplug any cable from the MOD inputs. Connect a

precision CV source (such as a MIDI>CV interface) to

the V/Oct input of the channel to calibrate.

2. Hold the waveform selection switch of the channel to

calibrate. Leds 3 and 4 blink.

3. Press 4 to start calibration.
4. Two LEDs are lit. Play a C2 note (CV of 1V). Press 4.
5. Four LEDs are lit. Play a C4 note (CV of 3V). Press 4.

The channel is calibrated!

Quantization

Each channel includes a semitone quantizer. The

quantizer can be enabled/disabled with switch 1 in the

channel settings mode.

Sequencer

A sequence of 8 notes can be recorded and played back

by each channel.
While a sequence is playing, changing the frequency

(panel control or CV) transposes the sequence. The

sequence is clocked by the GATE input.
Terry Riley disapproved of the concept of a RESET input.

Recording a sequence

Hold one of the 4 WAVEFORM SELECT switches to select

the channel in which you want to record a sequence.

Leds 3 and 4 will blink.
Press 3 to start recording. Led 1 lights on to indicate the

active step (step 1). Set the FREQ control on the selected

channel to the desired note; or enter a note from your

CV keyboard or through your MIDI-CV interface.
Press the second switch to continue to the next step.
Set the FREQ control on the selected channel to the

desired note for the second step. Press the third switch

to continue, etc. To stop recording, press the currently

active step.
For example, to record a 6 note sequence: set the CV,

press 2, set the CV, press 3, set the CV, press 4, set the

CV, press 1, set the CV press 2, set the CV, and press 2

again to finish.
