CV C and D Clarification

BasariStudios · 2017-02-26T16:47:58.483Z

The AK has 1 CV Track but 4 CV Outs (yes i know we can turn other Tracks into CV Tracks)
but my question is, can you use all 4 CV Outs on 1 Track? Can i send EG or LFO out to my
Modular from the AK thru the CV C and D?

Thanks

Yes, the CV outs can be used for all sorts of stuff, including lfos, envelopes, clock or simply p-lockable signals for whatever you’d want.

Thanks Abhoth, any tips on how to turn the other 2 CV Outs into what i need, mostly EG or LFO?
I know how to go in and set them up but how do i assign an LFO or an EG to it to send out?

Thanks

Plocks I think.
For lfo and env, you map it as a destination the same way you do say a filter cutoff on another track.

Thanks Guys, i tried this and it works on the 1v/Oct CV, the Pitch, the LFO and the Env.
I had no success so far with getting the AK Envelopes to Control something on my Mod…
anyone any tips? I do have Gate going in the Modular but so far there is no Envelope
Control sent from the Modular to the Filter or AMP Gate on the Modular.

Thanks

BasariStudios:

so far there is no Envelope Control sent

You have to use Value Lin, zero it, modulate the Value Lin Value with the envelope, trig some envelopes on the track, hard to go wrong

Thanks Avan, i am getting somewhere now, just have to figure some things out.
CV A i use as a Gate, it is on Value Linear, -0.00 and max 5.00.
On Envelope 1 i have Destination to CV A Value and Depth (i play with it.
It is giving signs of life but if i stop play back on the Sequencer the Sound is
Held afterwards like straight to AMP but the Envelope still not Controlling.
I will try playing with it or by the time you will probably write something.

Thanks

Edit:
Now it works, the only problem is it still holds the Sound even after stop,
the Gate does not close…hmm? It is the same exact thing as when you
have the Offset up on a Modular VCA, the Gate kicks in but the VCA is
also open all the time, the Gate just sends stronger signals in.

If i try to 0 the Max Value in the CV Setup then shuts off completely.

zero it,

I am still trying to wrap my head around it…i know something has to be
zeroed somewhere for the bleeding to stop lika a BIAS on a VCA.

On the Normal page for a CV channel you get the settings (for pitch you’ll get note and slide params) on the Value Lin page you get a single potentiometer which is the Value of the ‘potentiometer’ ‘dividing’ the voltage between your minimum and your maximum … so that potentiometer should be set to the minimum value which for your unipolar envelope means all the way anti-clockwise

alternatively if your voltage range was -5 to 5v your zero point would be 12 o’clock and so on, so it depends on your settings … simplest conceptually is to use 0v to 5v and set the dial to minimum value … then the modulations from the envelope targeting value lin are all +ve

I am one blind and ridiculous man…thank you Man, i finally now saw
on the normal CV Page that there was a Val Parameter…brought that
down and it all works perfect now…ughhh i am stupid.
This saves me Envelopes and LFOs on the Modular now which is good,
the bad thing is, if i use the second envelope on the AK for the Filter
that means i need to use CV C Out…then i end up with one CV track, lol.

Works like a charm now and expands the power of the Modular ten fold.
