Synthrotek Sequence 8 Testing Instructions

Sequence 8 - Testing Procedures

Before you start this test, make sure that all knobs on the Sequence 8

have been rotated fully counter clockwise and that all 3 toggle

switches (Hold Hard, Clock Switch, Random) are in the down position.

—TESTING CV OUTPUTS—

When you ﬁrst turn on the Sequence 8 it should be running on its

internal clock. Let's make sure that all 3 CV Outputs are working

correctly. Begin by plugging in a cable into the Sequence 8's CV 1

Output and plug the other end of the cable into the 1V/Oct Input on an

Oscillator, and make sure to monitor the output of the oscillator.

Since all 8 of the sequence knobs are rotated fully counter clockwise

and the CV 1 input is set fully counter clockwise, you should get a

stable tone out of your Oscillator.

Rotate Step 1's knob fully clockwise and leave the CV 1 attenuator set

fully counter clockwise. You should still get a stable tone out of your

Oscillator when it passes the voltage for Stage 1. If the Oscillator

changes pitch even though the CV 1 Attenuator is turned down all the

TESTING RESET: While the Sequence 8 is running on its internal clock, press the red RESET switch and you should notice the sequence resetting back to Step 1 Now plug in a cable into the RESET output and plug the other end into Step 2’s Reset input.
