Product information "Doepfer A-142-2 Dual Envelope Controlled VCA"
The A-142-2 consists of two VCAs, which are controlled by envelopes. The modulators work with AD, AR or ADSR characteristic. The behaviour can be selected via toggle switch. The timer input can be used to control jumper-selectable parameters (A, D/R or A+D/R). In addition, the two channels are equipped with a ducking input, which can be used to mute the VCA using an external control voltage.
Module A-142-2 consists of two envelope controlled VCAs.
The envelope type can be selected using a toggle switch:
AD: Attack Decay
AR: Attack Release
ADSR: Attack-Decay-Sustain-Release with the restriction that decay and release time are the same and the sustain level is fixed ( factory setting = 50% )
One LED display per channel shows the envelope curve.
The envelopes are triggered by pressing the button or via the gate input.
Thanks to the CVT input, segments of the envelope can be controlled via CV.
With the help of internal jumpers, it is possible to determine for each unit which parameters are to be controlled via the CVT input (e.g. only A or only D/R or A and D/R) and in which direction the control takes place, i.e. whether an increasing control voltage increases or decreases the times.
In addition to CV control, each of the two units also has manual volume control.

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.
