SYNAPSE
Synapse is a CV interface module for the Elektron Analog Four and Analog Keys.
The module simplifies integration of these devices into a Eurorack modular synth
context by eliminating the need for insert cables and adapters while also providing
visual feedback about what's happening on each of the four CV channels.

Technical Details

In the box:
- Synapse module
- Power cable (10-to-16 pin)
Dimensions:
- Width: 6hp (1.2" or 30.5mm)
- Height: 3U (5.06" or 128.5mm)
- Depth: 30mm (with power cable installed)
Power Requirements:
- Maximum of 30mA at +12V
- Protected against reverse polarity

Module Installation

To install the module in your Eurorack system, first ensure that power to the system is
turned off. Please take precautions against ESD (electrostatic discharge) to prevent
permanent damage to the module's components. Connect the smaller 10-pin socket
of the power cable to the module, aligning the red stripe on the power cable with the
"-12V" label on the PCB. Connect the larger 16-pin socket on the power cable to your
power distribution board. Take note of the power cable's orientation with regard to
the -12V supply of your power distribution board. The red stripe usually (but not
always) aligns with the bottom of the connector on the distribution board. Synapse is
protected against reverse polarity (which occurs when a power cable is connected
upside down) but other modules in your system may not be.
