  • Page 2: Specifications

    Specifications ● Width: 8 HP ● Supply voltage: +12V/-12V (Eurorack 10-pin header) ● Current draw: ○ +12V: 60 mA ○ -12V: 30 mA ○ 5V: unused, 0 mA ● CV inputs: 4x 0V to 5V usable, -12V to 12V absolute Connecting PIP to Eurorack power Connect a 10 pin Eurorack power cable to the 2x5 power header on the back of the module.
  • Page 4 Control Voltage (CV) Outputs There are 4 outputs, 2 per channel. The upper output is unipolar, it outputs a waveform ranging from 0V to +5V, while the lower one is bipolar and outputs the same waveform scaled to a range of roughly -5V to +5V.
  • Page 5 ratios printed in between are no longer accurate, as the progression indicated on the front panel is not linear. They’re close enough for orientation though. In this mode, if the internal clock changes (by tapping the SYNC button or changing the incoming sync signal), the currently set ratio between channel A and B will remain, meaning both channels will still speed up or slow down simultaneously.
  • Page 6 Press the button for approximately 1 second in order to switch to phase mode (see DIV). A long press will not change the current wavetable page and will switch into phase mode if the module is currently in normal or free mode. It will switch into normal mode if the module is currently in phase mode.
  • Page 7 Attention! The SYNC LED indicates the cycle boundaries for the master channel (B). While on a DIV ratio other than 1/1, or in phase or free mode, these boundaries may differ from those of channel A. Recording for channel A will be stopped/started on the actual channel A boundaries, so if in doubt, record to channel A in normal mode with the DIV ratio set to 1/1.
  • Page 8 SYNC A positive voltage pulse on this input has the same function as a press of the SYNC button. The input is usually not used as a tap tempo input though, but a continuous sync signal input from e.g. a sequencer. A pulse may be arbitrarily long in duration and the rising edge may not be steep, so input from an LFO is also possible.
  • Page 9 random sample&hold page on channel B does not permit recording, but the LED will light up nevertheless, as it is triggered directly from the button or input.) Appendix: Wavetable pages following table lists waveforms available wavetable pages – clockwise, – middle position, CCW –...
