ADDAC - 320 Servo Control
ADDAC has always admired the ingenuity of Neil Young's Whizzer, way ahead of its time—a great example of how great ingenuity and engineering can come together to make something great. Inspired by its motor-controlled method, ADDAC created a 4HP solution to control any knob that doesn't have a CV input, while also possible to use for other gear as well (within certain distance constraints).
The module uses a servo motor, which is a specific type of motor that can be digitally controlled to go to a precise angle. This motor is controlled by a microcontroller that also receives an incoming CV voltage from 0 to +5V and linearly converts this voltage range to the 270-degree servo motor range.
Using a spring wire and metal couplers, the motor shaft is then attached to the target knob to be controlled, which will turn as the servo turns.
Two other knobs [MAXIMUM ANGLE] & [MINIMUM ANGLE] further allow control of the "sweet spot" of the target knob, setting a smaller servo range.
Raising the [MIN ANGLE] knob above the [MAX ANGLE] knob inverts the servo range.
It cannot be stressed enough how important it is to read the whole User's Guide thoroughly for this one!
