This is Soundlab Notes analog synthesizer by Health Club Music.
It is one compact unit with many features.
It has the following features:
2 VCOs (Both have Saw Waveforms, VCO2 also has Square Wave with adjustable Pulse Width)
1 LFO with switchable Square, Saw, Triangle, and Ramp Waves
1 VCF that is Resonant and is switchable between BandPass and LowPass Modes
1 VCA
2 Attack Release Envelopes (AR1 or the LFO can be switched to retrigger both Envelopes, looping them like LFOs)
1 Manual Trigger Arcade Button can trigger or gate the AR Envelopes
1 Envelope Follower that is triggered by the External Audio Input and can be sent to VCO 1, VCO2, VCF, and VCA
Many input and output jacks, look at the photos!
When the Link Switch is on, the VCO1 Freq knob tunes both VCOs and the VCO2 freq knob offsets VCO2 from VCO1, so you can play the same chord at different notes. When the Link Switch is off, both VCOs are tuned independently of each other.
The Envelope Follower works great with drum machines and guitars. Depending on what you like to play, Notes will give funky spacey effects on your guitar riffs or an extra filter sweep and groovy beats with your drum machine.
There is a headphone amp on the main output, so you can listen to this synth on your headphones. There is a pre-amp on the audio input, so you can plug your guitar straight into the input.
The external CV1 and CV2 input jacks are linked, so that when you plug in a CV input into CV1 jack, it sends the CV to both oscillators, VCO1 and VCO2. You can also disconnect this link by plugging in your external CV input into just the CV2 input.
Notes takes two 9v batteries. The case is a hard plastic mini briefcase that opens up on both sides! The two lids can also detach completely from the case. You can store your papers and even some patch cables on your next trip.
The circuit on this synth is based on a design by Ray Wilson. Check out www.musicfromouterspace.com for more of his exciting analog projects and PC boards."
