Frequently Asked Questions

While not the absolute easiest module to grasp, it's straightforward once you understand CV concepts. It's a great learning tool for understanding modulation routing.
The attenuator allows you to precisely control the amplitude of one incoming CV signal, while the others are bipolar switches, simply inverting or passing the signal through.
While it doesn't generate sequences itself, it's an excellent component in a sequence routing setup, allowing you to combine and shape multiple sequence outputs.
