INTRODUCTION
Modulation is the core concept of modular
synthesis:
parameters
adding movement and musical interest to what
would otherwise be merely static sounds. Being
able to control the amplitude of signals
throughout a patch is therefore essential, and
one can never have too many voltage controlled
amplifiers (VCAs).
Designed as a fully-featured modulation hub for
Eurorack synthesisers, Morph 4 takes the basic
concept of the multi-VCA module to the next
level.
Four linear amplitude modulators are controlled
by a master 'morph' parameter. The response of
each modulator to this parameter is completely
variable, both manually and under voltage
control, and can be overridden if desired. Each
response
is
triangular,
parameter setting the maximum point along the
morph axis, while 'span' determines the width of
the triangle's base.
In addition to separate signal inputs and outputs,
a variety of combined outputs is available as well:
A+B, C+D, add (unity gain) and averaging mixes,
and instantaneous minimum and maximum.
Input normalisation makes it easy to send the
same signal to multiple modulators, while
output and modulator response LEDs provide
essential visual feedback.
The combination of master control, fully flexible
modulators and multiple combined outputs
creates a module truly embodying the spirit of
'patch programmable' modular synthesis. Use
Morph 4 as a voltage controlled mixer, dual
crossfader, dual panner, interpolating scanner,
interpolating
distributor,
quadraphonic controller, slope modifier, rectifier,
complex waveshaper or something in between
any of those—the choice is yours.
