DESCRIPTION

Version 1.5

Updated:
OSC - PLS SAW DUO: Changed the oscillator mapping. Oscillator 1 is tuned to the incoming pitch (only Coarse). Ocillator 2 consists out of two oscillators that can be unison detuned around the first one (only Fine).
OSC - 4WAV: Added a direct out for main oscillator minus sub-oscillator. This enables external mixing of main and sub oscillator.
INT - CLK Sync: Added direct outs for Base Gate.
SEQ - PQ: Added 8 S&H modules (S&H 8) on the PQ output.
SEQ - 8 STP: Added 8 S&H modules (S&H 8) on the sequencer output. Direction buttons replaced for Mod knob. Unipolar direct out for the sequencer position.
PRO - S&H: Added 8 S&H modules (S&H 8) on the main S&H output.
PRO - RNG: Added 8 S&H modules (S&H 8) on the main RNG output.
SEQ - MOD Squad: Added 8 S&H modules (S&H 8) on the sequencer output. Sequencer buttons replaced for Mod knobs. Unipolar direct out for the sequencer position.
INT - P&G: Added 8 gate inputs that are only sent to their outputs when a MIDI gate is received. A MIDI gated clock gate (MGC).
SEQ - BOOL Gate: 4x8 Boolean gate matrix that is controlled with Mod knobs.
SEQ - CLK Squad: Sequencer buttons and clock divider knobs replaced with Mod knobs.
MOD - SW Gate: Gated switch now changes its state only at gate on instead of gate on and gate off.
SEQ - Anti Gate: Buttons that add or subtract gates are replaced with Mod knobs that control a two stage Boolean test. The first test is on gate pair 1&2 and 3&4. The second test is on the results of of test 1.
PRO - COMP CG: Buttons replaced for Mod knobs. Three conditional gate outputs. 8 additional gate inputs that are Boolean tested with the Gate 3 output.
MOD - LFO DUO: Added random LFO. Wave selection Mod knobs.
MOD - LFO Sync: Changed into a duo LFO. Wave selection buttons replaced with Mod knobs.
MOD - LFO ST: Changed into a stereo LFO. Added wave folder from MOD - FLD.
MOD - LFO PU: Changed into a duo LFO. Added internal (by internal LFO) and external (by gate input) Switch gate operated crossfader.
MOD - LFO RNG: The Sync random LFO is replaced with a 8-bit analog shift register Turing machine. This is a mod on the Euro Reakt Turing Machine. The difference with the Euro Reakt version is that this mod has a controllable feedback loop (Steps) with a Mod knob and the bit outputs are synced with the incoming gate. The block contains an independent, free running random LFO as well.
MOD - LFO MW: Added random LFO. Wave selection Mod knob. Internal FM of (LFMO) free running LFO with direct out.
MOD - LFO EXP: Changed into a duo LFO.
PRO - CON REC: Added 8 inputs and 8 outputs.
MOD - KNB M: Added 8 inputs and 8 outputs.
MIX - CV Select: 2x8 inputs that are selected with 2 Mod knobs to 2 outputs.
MIX - CV MIX: Added mixer that mixes all 8 inputs to 1 output.
MOD - XY: This block is replaced with: MOD - XYZ. Mixes 8 inputs with three controls (XYZ). Three independent mixers with own outputs. The first is controlled with the knobs, the second with the XYZ inputs and the third with the incoming XYZ gate controlled switches (SW Gate).
MIX - XY S: Three independent XY Stereo mixers like XYZ, minus the Z.
MOD - KNB S: Added 4 stereo inputs and 4 stereo outputs.
MOD - SW S: Added 4 stereo inputs and 4 stereo outputs.
PRO - T&O: Added 8 inputs and 8 outputs.
AUX - Signal Meter: Added Slew knob.
FLT - DCF AAF: Added filter cutoff knobs.

New:
INT - MIDI M8: This is a one block solution for INT - P&G, INT - CLK Sync, SEQ - RNG Gate, PRO - RNG and SEQ - CLK Squad (minus its sequencer).
FLT - TSK DUO: Duo independent FLT - TSK NL that can be set up in serial, parallel, or stereo. Crossfader for the main output and a Flip pan for the two filters direct outs.
OSC - FM DUO: Oscillator with two internal FM operators and a 4 source noise generator that can used in the FM chain as well. All of them with direct outs.
SEQ - Turing P&G: A combination of a Turing machine and SEQ - PQ. The Turing machine generates 8 gate patterns, synced with the incoming gate and a unipolar RNG stream. This RNG stream is quantized by the PQ and S&H by the 8 gates generated by the Turing machine. The result are 8 pitch streams that are in sync with the 8 gate streams generated by the Turing machine. The integrated PQ and the XY mixer can operate independent from the Turing machine as the PQ has four external inputs.
MIX - Master Out: 4 Channel stereo mixer with integrated Butterworth HP and LP filters.

Version 1.4

Updated:
All LFO's except INT - LFO Sync: The SYNC knob can now be A/B modulated.
All Oscillators: The FINE knob can now be A/B modulated.
SEQ - PQ: Font colors for the note selectors. White for on and red for off.
MOD - VCA Squad: Knobs for the VCA's.

New:
SEQ - 8 STP: 8 step sequencer. Each step has A/B modulation. The sequencer can be controlled manually as well. The step sequencer and the manual sequencer have their own direct outs.
SEQ - CLK Squad: 4 output clock divider up to 128 divisions of the incoming gate per channel. An integrated 4 step sequencer has its own clock divider to mix the four outputs to a Mix output.
MOD - AD Squad: 4 AD envelope generators in one block. All four with A/B modulation.
MOD - LFO DUO: Two multi wave LFO's (MOD - LFO MW) in one block with integrated cross fader and attenuverter.
OSC - PLS SAW DUO: Two pulse to saw oscillators that can be unison detuned with one knob (FINE). The sync between the master (Pulse Oscillator 1) and the slave oscillators can be controlled with the Sync knob. There is a (mono) mix output and each oscillator has its own direct out (for a stereo setup).

Version 1.3

New:
SEQ - RNG Gate. Probability gates synced with incoming gate. Additional Boolean gates.
MOD - VCA Squad. Quad VCA with mix output.
SEQ - PQ. This is a mod on the factory's Digilog QUANT pitch quantizer block. The block has 4 inputs that are XY mixed. The pitch output is unipolar instead of bipolar for QUANT.
FX - DLY FBK S. Stereo feedback delay.
SEQ - MOD Squad. 4 step sequencer, mixer and modulator. 4 inputs are mixed in sequence. Each input (step) has its own A/B modulate-able knob.

Version 1.2

Updated:
AMP - VCA Clean and AMP - VCA SAT. The shadow of the A/B modulation of the GAIN knob caused issues when pressing the buttons (INT/EXT and LIN/EXP) right below the button. This issue has been resolved by Philippe Loiseau and taken care of in this update.

New:
MOD - SW Gate. Conditional gate activated cross fader with slew.
MOD - CV Sel. Selects 1 out of 4 CV inputs per channel (A and B). Selectable attenuverter per channel (A/B).
FLT - Curtish. This is the NI Pro-52 filter in a Block wrapper.
MOD - FLD. Wavefolders from OSC - FLD with added bias control.
FX - DLY FBK. Mono feedback delay.
MOD - AM OP. 3 AM modes, 2 AM inputs and multiple cross modulations possible. AM OP can be used as VCA / XF and offset as well in different patching approaches.
SEQ - BOOL Gate - 2 pairs of gate input are sent to Boolean tests and the result is output to a direct gate and a second test between the results of the Boolean test of each gate pair. All in all, 4 gate inputs deliver 21 gate outputs.
SEQ - Anti Gate. A gate combiner of 4 gates (plus manual gate). Each of the 4 incoming gate can be turned negative before the four gates plus manual gate are summed (and clipped) together to one gate output. Boolean outputs of the 4 incoming gates are available as well.

Version 1.1

Updated:
INT - P&G. Replaced Pitch and Gate MIDI in macros with the MIDI macros found in the factory's Util Note In to resolve an issue that not all outgoing gates were picked up by other blocks like MOD - ADSR or the factory's West Coast LPG. In addition, a MIDI channel selector is added to the Block.

New:
OSC - FM OP. This is a simple sine oscillator that has an FM input and three FM modes. This block is designed to have a simple FM source that can easily be placed in serial to create more sophisticated FM structures. Two of these oscillators have been used in the 3 OSC and 1 VCA patch as FM input for the main oscillator and the filter. The oscillator can be used as a standalone sine as well.
