Control box

• Dimensions: 136 x 153 x 42mm / 5⅜" x 6" x 1⅝" stand alone (max), 22HP x 25mm deep when mounted as euro rack
• Weight: 500g / 8oz
• Max CV/Gate voltage in recommended: 12V
• Voltage range for each CV input:
  • Harmonic V/Oct (A0) - 0 - 4V / 4 octaves (1327.716/V) (Harmonic knob turned to 0)
  • Harmonic shift (A1) - +/-2.425 (No attenuation)
  • Pressure (A3), Hammer (A4) & Mute (A7) - 0 - 3.6V (No attenuation)
  • Gate (A5) - 0 - 3.3V
• ADC resolution: A0 - A3 @ 16-bits, A4 - A7 @ 12-bits
• Input configuration: A4 and A5 configured as trigger-inputs which reads new data once when the input voltage has passed a certain threshold, all voltages under the threshold are recorded as 0. All other inputs are configured as regular inputs that are continuously read and their values recorded.
• CV input ring voltage/current for expression pedals: 5V @ 5mA / jack
• Audio output: 10Vpp (+/-5V)
