Prism Circuits - Smooth & Stepped Generator [Loudest Warning Format]

The SMOOTH & STEPPED GENERATOR is a complete multi-functional module which can be patch-programmed to provide various slew and sample functions. The Smooth section will place a positive and negative slew on the input voltage transitions for lag effects, voltage controlled portamento, and for low frequency filter applications. With the Cycle jack patched to the input, the unit will oscillate yielding a voltage controlled triangle wave LFO. A high level into the Hold input will enable the Smooth function to be used as a track-and-hold circuit with voltage controlled slew rate. 

The Stepped Function can be used as a sample-and-hold with voltage controlled slew rate limiting. With the Cycle jack patched to the input and a pulse applied to the Sample input, complex staircase waveforms are generated for control voltage applications and for use as audio signals. 

The Coupler is an internal comparator which compares the output levels of the Smooth and the Stepped Generators. The output is useful for generating complex control voltages and for the production of random voltages.
