Peak + Hold incl. Pickup - live analog percussion processor

Dynamic Percussion Interface

The Peak & Hold allows one to play and control analog synthesizer equipment using a drum with a pickup or any other percussive signal source. It generates 9 different CV/signal outputs from one input source. The Peak+Hold provides a dynamic hold voltage (linear and logarithmic), a dynamic impulse signal e.g. for triggering filters or delays, a dynamic release signal (linear and logarithmic), an envelope and a gate signal output. Additionally, the original sound signal (amplified) is available for further signal processing.
The input stage is equipped with adjustable level and trigger controls and a filter for flexible adaptation of different percussive instruments – such as long or short sounding, high or low drums and cymbals. Furthermore, there is a 2nd input to cascade two Peak+Holds or to add another signal source.
Without pickup, the Peak+Hold can be used for creating additional CVs and triggers from any percussive input signal (like from a drum machine or an audio player).
