- Uses capacitive sensing along a slider strip to track finger position and translate it to a proportional CV output.942
Jacks 2
| Name | Signal | Voltage | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Outputs (2) | |||
| CV OUT | cv | 0V to 10V | Outputs a CV proportional to finger position on the slider, swinging from near 0V to 5V or 10V depending on the range jumper.942 |
| GATE | gate | ≤5V | Gate output that goes high when the slider is touched; can be reconfigured as an external gate input via the G_I/O jumper on the back.942 |
Parameters 4
| Name | Type | Range | Behavior |
|---|---|---|---|
| Board Orientation Jumper | jumper | — | Sets which side of the module has the CV and GATE connectors, allowing the module to be mounted in either orientation.942 |
| CV Range Jumper | jumper | 5V – 10V | Selects whether the CV output swings 0–5V or 0–10V.942 |
| Gate I/O Jumper | jumper | — | Configures the GATE jack as either an output (default) or an external gate input for triggering loop recording.942 |
| REC/MODE Button | button | — | Cycles through LIVE, HOLD, and REC modes; also starts/stops loop recording when held while finger is on the slider.942 |
