Manufacturer Description:
Switch is a four-input, four-output, voltage and gate controlled switching matrix.
The panel is in three sections: inputs, voltage-select output, and
sequential outputs. Both output sections feature LEDs which indicate
what input channel is currently routed to that output.
The voltage-select output section has a control input, signal output, and 4 indicator LEDs. The response is such:
0v-1v - No connection (0v output)
1v-2v - Channel one
2v-3v - Channel two
3v-4v - Channel three
4v-5v - Channel four
The sequential output has three outputs: two-stage, three-stage, and
four-stage. All three outputs shift in tandem on rising edges presented
to the v-trig input. There is a stage one input, when gates are
presented to this input all outputs will reset and remain on channel
one.
Switch also features a very useful bonus feature. There is a connector
on the back for the STG Sync Bus. When connected to the sync bus, inputs
one through four are normalised to 50 percent duty cycle rhythm clocks
of 8th, 16th, 16th triplets, and 32nd notes.
This allows you to use Switch as a voltage controlled clock generator
while under sync bus control without any inputs connected except the
control signal.
Switch on a sync bus, coupled with a voltage sequencer such as the
Voltage Mini-Store or a Detachment 3 Archangel, is the most direct way
to duplicate the functionality of Tangerine Dream's Projekt Elektronik
digital trigger sequencer as used on the title track of Stratosfear.
This module has a physical depth of only 2 inches.
