Getting to Know Planar 2 - Part 3

Published on Sep 20, 2018 Intellijel

"In the third and final video of our Planar 2 overview, we explore the three CV input modes: Cartesian, Polar, and Scan. Each mode provides a different means of interacting with the movement of the joystick so we'll take a look at how they can be put to use in the creation of new and exciting patches!"

Getting to Know Planar 2 - Part 2

"In this video we dive a little deeper into using Planar 2 by exploring how it can record and playback your gestures as CV. We go over how recording and playback can be synchronized with a clock and check out the three loop modes.

With its smoothly responsive precision joystick, Planar 2 facilitates hands-on vector control of two entirely independent sets of outputs (quadrants A-D, and axis X/Y), plus the ability to capture and playback your gestures. Recording your joystick movements enables the creation of organic and complex envelopes, wild and wobbly LFOs, or extended sonic evolutions. It mixes, morphs, routes and pans audio inputs; triggers gates; outputs control voltages and is itself, CV-controllable. Planar2 puts the ‘joy’ back in ‘joystick,’ and the ‘fun’ back in ‘function generator.’ Its multitasking and tactile interface makes it a flexible and unique control device, no matter what your musical genre."
