Description Introducing dåpf, the first dedicated effects processor in the Instruō product line. The Instruō dåpf is a set of two analogue all-pass filters. You might be asking yourself, “What is the point of a filter that passes everything?” All-pass filters don’t actually attenuate frequency amplitudes directly, but rather alter the phase relationship of frequencies across the spectrum.
Installation 1. Confirm that the Eurorack synthesizer system is powered off. 2. Locate 4 HP of space in your Eurorack synthesizer case. 3. Connect the 10 pin side of the IDC power cable to the 2x5 pin header on the back of the module, confirming that the red stripe on the power cable is connected to -12V.

Channel 1 Input (IN): The channel 1 Input (left) provides direct access to the channel 1 all-pass filter. Output (OUT): The channel 1 Output (left) provides the filtered signal present at the channel 1 Input. • If no cable is connected to the channel 1 Output, then the signal present at the channel 1 Input is processed and passed to the channel 2 Output.
Page 7
Channel 2 Input (IN): The channel 2 Input (right) provides direct access to the second all-pass filter. • If no cable is connected to the channel 1 Input, the signal present at the channel 2 Input normals to both all-pass filter channels. In this scenario, only the corresponding phase parameter will affect the signal present at the respective channel Output.

Global 1V/Oct Input: 1V/Oct Input is a bipolar control voltage input that is calibrated for 1 volt per octave tracking. • Control voltage is summed with the values set by the Phase Sliders Phase CV Inputs. Normalling The normalling of input signals moves clockwise around the panel from Input to the channel 2 Output.
Patch Examples Mono Phase-Shifting: Summary: Input An oscillator is connected to channel 1’s monitored through channel 1’s Output. A control voltage signal modulates the phase. Output (sine) – Audio Path: • Connect the output of a harmonically rich oscillator waveform to the channel 1 Input.

Serial Mono Phase-Shifting: Summary: An oscillator is attenuated and then connected to channel Input and monitored through channel 2’s Output, creating a mono 2’s sum of both channels. Two different control voltage signals modulate the phase of each channel. Output (triangle) –...

Control Path: • Connect two different control voltage signals to both Phase CV Inputs and set the corresponding Phase CV Attenuverters to a desired position. Note: If using bipolar control voltage signals, bias the corresponding Phase Sliders so that negative voltage doesn’t clip the Phase CV Inputs.
