Erica Synths Black Multi User guide

BLACK MULTI

SWITCH

Switches add or subtract 1V from the incoming CV signal. When patching the
outputs to a 1V/oct input of a VCO, you can transpose the VCO for an octave.

THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING ERICA SYNTHS
BLACK SERIES MODULE!

Erica Black Series include high-end, unique functionality and superior quality
modules. Only the best, highest quality components are used, all inputs and outputs
are protected against undesired overvoltage. When designing Black Series, we put
design and usability superior. Big knobs are assigned to functions that make
dierence in sound. Erica Black series consist of range of modules that are needed
to put together entire synth. Enjoy!

Erica Synths Black Stereo Delay Erica Synths Black Multi is highly accurate active
buered 2x1to3 or 1to6 multiple that will work for signal splitting in any circuit,
including driving several VCOs in tune from one CV source. “Octave” or +-1V oset
switches on both channels allow to add or subtract one volt form each channel thus
transposing VCOs one octave up or down. Hidden feature - custom oset - allows
to set user defined oset on the first channel.

SPECS:

Max input level -10V - +10V
Power consumption +25mA, -25mA
Module width 4HP
Module depth 25mm

INPUTS

Apply signal, you wish to split here! Input is DC coupled, so you can use it for
splitting CV, clock or audio signals. This module is actually 2x3 multiple, and
second input is normaled to the first output, so if nothing is patched in the second
input, you get one signal splitted to 6 outputs, OR if you plug a patchcable in
INPUT2, you automatically get 2x3 multiple. Each section has it’s bias switch.
The top section of the module has hidden feature – optional initial bias, meaning,
if nothing is patched in IN A, the module automatically adds user preset voltage
(0…5V) to the output signal. In order to activate it, remove the jumper on the
back of the module and use a small screwdriver to access the trimpot on the
front panel and set the desired initial bias.

OUTPUTS

On outputs you get 6 or 2x3 identical independent signals – exact copies of input
signals or biased ones depending on the setting of the transpose switches.
