Modcan CV Recorded 57B - MU Panel

The CV Recorder 57B module provides a radical new approach to generating modulation and voltage control signals. The implications for this module are extensive when placed in a modular synthesizer context.

Concept: Combine the ability to record and playback control voltage signal events from standard modules with the tools to shape, mix, loop and time scale these performances in a simple and repeatable manner.

A brief list of possible uses for the 57B:
Create asymmetric LFO shapes from Joysticks or ribbon controller signals
Control panning and VCA parameters for automated mixing
Record long analogue step sequence patterns while changing the step voltages and recording the clock simultaneously for later sync operations
Combine and chain together random voltage patterns with sequences and LFOs on 4 channels
Record envelope shapes and loop them while adjusting the loop start and end points.
Perform granular synthesis type effects on CVs using short loops and sweeping the loop points through the sample under voltage control.
Record lo-fi audio samples and shift playback frequency in real-time.
Plus many more
