From: "Stefan Gruhl (CIP 92)" Subject: EMU-modular - part VI - the VCC (clock) Date: Sat, 19 Aug 1995 18:25:28 +0200 (MET DST) the Voltage controlled clock: Basically it's a very flexible LFO. But what a LFO ! AS the title is telling us already it's speed is CVable. It's kind of a special VCO with a cycle range from about 18 minutes ! up to audio range (500Hz). It is putting out pulse wave and sawtooth. It has initial frequency knobs, for initial pulse width, and attenuator for controlling the pw, one knob for attenuating the initial speed and 2 input's without attenuation. What I did understand so far is, that the 2 output's should go to the pulse and saw output jacks. the special clock features are: toggeling the Clock on/off. Thers is a switch that has 3 states. You may want a clock that always runs until it receives a logical 1 on the "off" input jack. Or vice versa, you may want a clock that just runs when you give a 1 on the "on" input. Or you may use both ins and the last 1 determines in wich state the clock rem- ains until it receives a new input. The difference to just gating the out is, that the logic always takes care that the clock output cylces through a whole cylce. So it's taken care that each timing out is comleted in a clean way. You also have 2 inputs with the same switch to decide wich output you want to use. This way you can toggle between 2 "Clock output's". There are additional 2 output jacks, labeled "Clock output 1 and 2" with their own lamp. the lamp should show wich out the 2 out's is active right now. My Problem is, that I can't see (nor try) how that should work. I can't get any out on none of the 4 outputs. There are the "normal" puldse and saw outs and this 2 clock outs. What I understand is that they should be the same. But although I did set the running state of the Clock module into all positions I could think of, none of the output's did "say" anything. MAybe this module is broken, or I completely missunderstand it's functionality. At least what I told you is from the EMU Manual. At least if it WOULD work, it could be quite useful and extraordinary, stefan
