Kitty Eyes
Snazzy FX loves chaos, and we want you to have a piece of it too! Not
necessarily chaos in the sense of everything going crazy, but chaos as
found in natural systems: dripping faucets, kinetic interactions or fractals.
The Kitty eyes has most of the features of our bigger chaos modules but
with a lower price and footprint.
Features
Two chaotic outputs with different characteristics
•
Trigger output
•
Threshold control for setting chaotic trigger density
•
Cv attenuator for CV input
•
Speed control for setting the coarse pitch set of the chaotic system
•
Bi-color LED to indicate the state of the chaotic oscillator
•
Uses
Works great as a modulation source for any module requiring 2
•
CV inputs (i.e. the Snazzy FX Ardcore)
Use it with a VCA to create unique percussion sounds
•
Chaotic Triggers add an organic element to sequences or to drum
•
patterns
Works well for modulating VCOs and filters
•
Works well as a unique "noise" source
•
Feed audio signals into the CV input for interesting effects
•
Use the chaotic trigger output as a strange audio out
•
CV input resets the chaotic oscillator when fed with a trigger,
•
sawtooths and pulses – can be used to disturb the chaos
Perfect for experimenting
•
Width 6HP
Current draw 10mA

Front panel speed control of the chaotic system bi-color LED chaos indicator III. CV attenuator threshold control trigger LED X chaos output VII. Y chaos output VIII. CV/trigger/audio input III. trigger output VII. VIII. Shows the movement of the chaotic oscillator. Shows the operation of the threshold control. - Page 3 Depending on the level of the signal and its content, you can get some interesting sounds! At times the Kitty eyes can sound like a synced VCO on its last legs, and you might even be able to get it locked to your favorite pop song if you smash it through the HI_GAIN first! As with other Snazzy FX chaos modules, experimentation is key.
- Page 4 TRIG output back into the CV input. Sometimes this creates usable results. If you are going for chaotic triggers, set the Kitty eyes to max chaos with or without an incoming CV, then adjust the CV knob for fine tuning. Then set the Threshold knob to taste.
