Analogue Systems RS-50 Trigger Generator
- Order number: 120223
- Depth: 65
The RS-50 contains three cicuits in one module: trigger generator, pulse shaper and an offset generator called shifter.
The Trigger Generator creates trigger signals depending on voltage changes of the input signal. If the voltage at the input changes by +10mV in short time then a +10V trigger will be generated. Besides that a trigger will be made when the direction of the signal gos either positive or negative; this way you can double pulses. The input accepts voltages up to +10V. Each trigger will be displayed with a LED.
The Shaper converts a fast signal with a rising edge (like a trigger) into a gate signal. Its length can be controlled with the Shape control and a CV. It reacts to triggers with an amplitude from +2V to +20V and generates pulses with a +10V amplitude.
The third section is the Shifter, an offset generator. It creates a constant offset voltage between -10V and +10V. If a signal is applied to the "V IN" jack then the offset voltage is added to the signal and shifted a certain voltage. upwards or downwards.

RS-50 @Analogue Systems
Starting almost in parallel with Doepfer, Bob Williams established back in 1998 his own modular system with fine circuits reminiscent of the British tradition initiated with EMS in the 1970s. Despite offering initially a different power connector and panel width standard (which left a 1,5HP gap), all modules bearing the "N" on their names are adapted to work seamlessly with most eurorack cases. Still, it is worth checking the depth of your case.
