Thank you for purchasing a WORNG Electronics Vertex stereo VCA, we 
hope it's just what you need to bring your modular system into the 
world of stereo. 
 
Connecting your Vertex: 
Vertex requires 8hp of space in your Eurorack system, and a depth of 
25mm. Connect the included power cable to the back of the module 
and to your power busboard. The connection on the module is 
shrouded and can only go one way, but is also marked with a line to let 
you know which way the red stripe should be facing. The module is also 
protected against damage from reverse power connection, but you 
should still always be careful connecting power.

Vertex essential concepts: 
 
Vertex is much more than just two mono VCAs 
with common controls to perform stereo duties, it 
uses a combination of four linear and exponential 
VCAs to give you convenient and powerful control 
of stereo signals.  
 
At the top of the module you will find the Gain and 
Gain Cv Amount controls, along with a Gain CV 
input. These set the gain for both L and R channels 
together. The CV amount has enough range to use 
with envelopes from 5V to 10V, as well as bipolar 
CVs.  
 
Below the Gain controls are a pair of LED indicators 
to clearly show you the amount of CV being sent to 
the L and R VCAs. These amounts are controlled by 
both the Gain and Skew controls, as well as their 
CVs.

  • Page 3 Gain   The Gain control sets the baseline Gain of both L and R signal VCAs in  the Vertex. When fully counterclockwise no signal passes through,  when fully clockwise the signal can pass through at unity gain,  depending on the settings of the Skew control. ...
  • Page 4   As mentioned in the Gain section above, the choice of VCAs used in the  design of Vertex allows the CV amount to be clipped at unity gain,  which means the Skew controls can dynamically alter the shape of an ...
