(1) ATTACK TIME – Adjusts t he rate at which the enve lope
reaches i ts peak voltage.
(2 ) SIGN AL LED – Indicates when a ga te signal is present .
(3 ) INITIAL D ECAY TIME – Adjusts the r ate at which the
envelope de cays from its p eak to its designate d
sustain level.
(4 ) SUSTAIN LEVE L – Controls the level at w hich the
envelope re mains after it s peak but before re lease,
sustain ing as long as the inpu t signal is present or t he
manual gate b utton is held down.
(5 ) FINAL DEC AY TIME – Controls how quic kly the envelope
falls af ter the input signal s tops or the manual gat e button
is released.
(6 ) TRIG GER MODE – Selects b etween single m ode,
where only t he gate signal contr ols the envelope,
or multip le mode, which uses a p ositive trigger p ulse to
re-tri gger the envelope whi le a gate signal is pres ent.
(7 ) MAN UAL GATE – Press and h old to start the
envelope c ycle.
(8 ) G ATE– Connec t a gate signal to contr ol the envelope cyc le.
(9) TRIG – Triggers a new a ttack of the envel ope if a gate
signal is also present.
(10) OUT L – Send the l eft envelope po sitive and negativ e

Power Connection
The unit com es with the requi red power cable for c onnecting
to a standa rd Eurorack power su pply system. Fol low these
steps to con nect power to the mo dule. It is easier to make th ese
connec tions before th e module has been mou nted into a
rack cas e.
1. Turn the power supp ly or rack case power o and
disconne ct the power cabl e.
2. Ins ert the 16-pin conn ector on the power c able into the
socket on t he power supply or rac k case. The connec tor has
a tab that wi ll align with the gap in t he socket, so it can not
be inser ted incorrec tly. If the power supply d oes not have
a keyed socke t, be sure to orient pi n 1 (-12 V) with the red
stripe o n the cable.
3. Ins ert the 10-pin co nnector into the s ocket on the back of
the modul e. The connector ha s a tab that will align wi th the
socket for correct orientation.
4. Af ter both ends of the po wer cable have been se curely
attac hed, you may mount the mo dule in a case and tur n on
the power supply.

Installation
The neces sary screws ar e included with th e module for mount ing
in a Eurorac k case. Connect t he power cable bef ore mounting.
Dependi ng on the rack case, th ere may be a series of xed holes
spaced 2 HP ap art along the leng th of the case, or a tr ack that
allows indi vidual threaded p lates to slide along th e length
of the cas e. The free-movi ng threaded plate s allow precise
positio ning of the module, bu t each plate should be p ositioned in
the approx imate relation to th e mounting holes in yo ur module
before a ttaching the sc rews.
Hold the mo dule against the Eur orack rails so that e ach of the
mounting h oles are aligned wi th a threaded rail o r threaded
plate. Att ach the screws par t way to start, w hich will allow
small adjus tments to the pos itioning while you g et them all
aligned. After the nal position has been established, tighten the
screws d own.
