Frequently Asked Questions
Unipolar provides a range from 0-1V, while bipolar allows for both positive and negative modulation, enabling pitch bending effects.
The station search is decent, but signal strength definitely impacts its effectiveness; weaker stations may require manual adjustment or direct station selection.
The mute gate input is a simple on/off trigger; it doesn't inherently support velocity or other advanced control methods.
