MULTIPLE ARBITRARY FUNCTION GENERATOR MODEL 248 REV2.1

A set of 2 PCBs. REV2.1 is using thru-hole parts. Note: Only PCBs are included with kits. A Microcontroller Card is needed for the 248 Kit. It is sold separately here. The defining of audio parameters by means of voltages is an important aspect of modern electronic music instrumentation. But the usefulness of this principle is determined by the flexibility and generality of control voltage sources. Since their introduction in 1963, envelope generators and sequencers have comprised the available programmed sources of control voltages. Even with a decade of refinement they possess significant shortcomings. Envelope generators (developed to establish traditional note shapes) produce only a specific class of simple transient functions; sequencers (developed to reduce tape splicing) are limited to stepped functions and rigidly phased outputs. The resultant constraints on our otherwise quite general system led us to conceive this new source of programmed voltages. Unencumbered by engineering
