Doepfer A-118 Noise / Random
- Order number: 120093
- Depth: 40
Analog noise and random. White noise output and one out for colored noise with level controls for red and blue spectral amount. The same controls affect the amplitude of the random signal. Additionally there are controls for the speed and the overall amplitude of the random voltage.
The "white" output carries the white noise as expected. The "colored" socket outputs the colored noise whose timbre is determined by the "Blue" and "Red" potentiometers. Blue emphasizes the high frequencies and Red the low ones.
The random generator emits a fluctuating random voltage. It's rate of change and level are set with the according potentiometers. But also the Red and Blue controls affect the random signal's deflection. Especially at high Red setting extreme values are reached. Two LEDs display amount of deflection into positive or negative range.

A-118 @Doepfer
WIth a long trajectory building synths, MIDI keyboards and designing bespoke devices for music pioneers Kraftwerk, Dieter Doepfer decided to design his own modular synthesizer in 1995 based on existing electrical and mechanical specifications of lab equipment he used during his years at university. The official presentation of the system at 1996 Frankfurt Musikmesse caught everyone by surprise and created lots of interest. After Doepfer published the specifications on his website, many instrument designers and engineers saw the potential of the new Eurorack format. Doepfer continues expanding their catalog of over 200 modules (and counting), operating from their modest offices in the outskirts of Munich.
