4ms Pingable Envelope Generator
- Order number: 120004
- Depth: 26
The Pingable Envelope Generator or PEG is a dual digital envelope generator. The duration of one envelope cycle can be forced-to-fit between two "pings". This means that the envelope will perfectly fit into a rhythmical scheme!
Besides the use as an envelopes the PEG can be used as a LFOs as well, just hit the cycle switch. Both, the duration of the LFO cycle or the length of the envelope can be forced to fit perfectly into a time grid just by tapping the ping button or by feeding a clock into the ping input.
The ping rate can be multiplied or divided by the factors 2 to 8, manually and by CV which means you can automatize the LFO rate... perfect for wobbly modulations á la dubstep.
The characteristic, shape and the symmetry of the wave can be manually set and voltage controlled by the SKEW and CURVE parameters. A SCALE control acts as a polarizing attenuator on the output (-10V to 0V to 10V).
Further features: unipolar (0-10v) or bipolar mode (-5V to 5V). Trigger outputs for end-of-rise (or half-rise, depends on jumper setting) and end-of-fall. Logic function

Based in Portland (Oregon, US) Dan Green and Jeannot Quenson had a years experience already building guitar pedals. Since one input/output and tone and volume control felt a bit limiting, they applied their knowledge and passion to building a wide range of modules. Their collaboration with Matthias Puech (developer of the Clouds' Parasites alternative firmware) and Gary Hall (designer of the Lexicon PCM42) have proved to be very fruitful.
