Mode IV: Quadraphonic Panner
The
Quadraphonic Panner
may be the simplest mode in CVilization, but it is no less interesting…
This mode was originally conceived as a smooth counterpart to Mode II, but since each output of the
Sequential Switch can already switch inputs, we decided to reverse the principle here and pan each input
across the 4 outputs, automatically and/or via CV. As CVilization can also process audio signals, Mode IV
can be used as a traditional quadraphonic audio mixer.
For Mode IV we decided to abandon the classic CV processors (sample & hold etc.) in favor of effects that
are more focused on audio. That’s the reason why Mode IV has no configuration pages!
One highlight of this mode is
automatic panning
: As well as a volume for each input, you can also set a
nominal pan position which can then be shifted, either automatically or via CV-A
and
CV-B.
Finally,
Auto Hop
jumps to a random pan position on each transient (‘blip’ in the audio), which makes this
option especially interesting for percussive material.
Basic operation
• Turn LE1-4 to adjust
input volumes
, indicated by the brightness of the encoders as you turn.
• Turn RE1-4 to adjust the
pan positions
for each input. If you prefer to focus on just one input, press
that RE first. After you are finished, press it again.
• Both CV inputs are used for external pan control.
