Modules for Voltage Modular


Volt Shifter

Volt Shifter is best thought of as a purple, parallel-loaded, 8-stage voltage shift register. 

Purpose

There are three voltage ranges: 0V to 1V, 0V to 5V and -10V to +10V. Each stage can be set to any voltage in the chosen range. Every time a trigger signal arrives at the "Advance" input the sequence shifts along one position and the output changes accordingly. The sequence length can be set from 1 to 8 and a rather groovy mini-waveform display gives a visual indication of the voltage sequence.

The first range is perfect for generating note CVs within an octave, especially when paired with a quantizer. The other two ranges will find a use driving envelopes, gates and any number of CV inputs. For example, you could feed the output through Cherry Audio's Glide module to smooth out the transitions.

Inputs

Advance

A standard trigger input. A positive edge on this input will advance to the next stage, or wrap around back to the first stage if we are at the end of the sequence.

Reset

A standard trigger input. A positive edge on this input will immediately jump to the first stage.

Rand

A standard trigger input. A positive edge on this input will randomize each of the voltage knobs.

Outputs

CV Out

A standard CV output. This voltage will always match the currently active stage, indicated by the lit LED. 

Controls

Range switch

This sets the voltage range for the knobs: 0V to 1V, 0V to 5V or -10V to +10V.

Voltage knobs x 8

These knobs set the voltage between -10V and +10V for each stage.

Seq Length knob

This sets the overall length of the sequence, from 1 to 8.
