Description
Dual ADSR/VCA with Cycling Gate Pulsers
Push (or Pulse) the Envelope
Snappy, classically analogue envelopes with visually intuitive controls. Add a powerful, cv controllable cyclical gate generator, integrated VCA, and trigger buttons —then double it—now you’ve got Tangrams.
Get In Shape
Tangrams, like our Dual ADSR before it, is a dual analogue core-envelope inspired by the Roland SH-101 / System 100m design with several enhancements. Taking further inspiration from trapezoidal function generators like the one on the EMS Synthi, we have added a voltage-controlled pulser circuit to link the triggering of two envelopes – allowing for delayed one-shots, cycling organic envelopes, and more. In addition, we’ve added two VCAs for level control of each envelope, or alternatively, direct injection of the signal you’d like to envelope – freeing up your other VCAs.
ADSR + VCA Features
- Dual Analog ADSR envelopes with digital gate Pulser for trapezoid shapes
- Pulser stages P1 and P2 can be selectively routed to trigger each ADSR via panel switches
- Three timing ranges: (FAST: ~5 seconds, MED: ~35sec, SLOW: ~1min A/D times)
- Retrig input (allows re-triggering of the envelope if source gate held high)
- VCA input can be used to dynamically control the respective ADSR output level (bipolar) or to process signals to be modulated in amplitude by the ADSR.
- Manual GATE buttons for each envelope
Pulser Features
- A pulse is made of individually controllable T1 and T2 stage lengths
- CV control over T1 and T2 time
- Pulser can be one-shot (SINGLE) or repeating (CYCLE)
- PULSE output has a switch to select P1 or P2 as the source.
- Pulser stages P1 and P2 can be selectively routed to trigger each ADSR via panel switches
- START trigger input for starting/restarting the Pulser sequence
- Manual GATE button to trigger the Pulser sequence
