MODCAN Processor 08A modular synthesizer Pre-Amp

via this auction

"This module is no longer in production at Modcan HQ, making this a rare opportunity to add some additional functionality to your system.

The Processor Module is made up of 4 separate utility modules; Pre-Amp input, Envelope Follower, Integrator (Lag/Slew), & CV/Signal processor.

Each section functions independently and as an isolated circuit.

FEATURES - - - - - ->

From the manual:

PRE AMP

Pre-Amp Input: Connect outputs from drum machines, samplers, guitars, tape decks etc. to this input. The signal from these sources is often at a lower level than Modcan modules prefer so use this module to boost

Pre-amp Output: Route this to any input that would normally be used to process signals i.e. filters, Ringmod, Phaser, etc.

Ratio Selector: Allows selection between high or low gain boost, which can also be attenuated using the Gain Control Knob .

ENVELOPE FOLLOWER

Envelope Follower Input: Send the output from the Pre-amp module above to this input to create voltage envelopes that rise and fall depending on the source signal's amplitude.

Follower Output: Route output to any control voltage input. Some uses would be opening a filter in time with individual hits in a drum loop or modulating an oscillator's pitch.

INTEGRATOR

Integrator Input: The Integrator, also known as Lag, Slew or Portamento, is used to smooth or glide between abrupt voltage transitions.

Output: Route to any control voltage input on another module.

Lag Control: Sets the time constant or amount of glide between

Lag CV: Control voltage input for lag amount

CV/SIGNAL PROCESSOR

CV Mixer inputs

Input 1&2 Mix control : Use this control to mix the inputs 1 and 2

Non Inverting Output: Output inversion is follows the input (no inversion)

Offset: Adds or subtracts voltage to the input signal. An example of offset use is when shifting a triangle wave which swings +/- 2.5V so

Inverting Output: This output inverts or turns the resulting waveform upside-down. This is useful for inverting envelopes etc."
