Product information "Expert Sleepers - Disting Mk4"
Jack of all trades – The Disting Mk4 is a multifunctional module with two inputs and outputs. Close to 60 algorithms are available for processing and / or generating audio respectively CV signals. Oscillator, filter, resonator, wave shaper, LFO, envelope, quantizer, slew limiter, bit crusher, phaser, delay or logic processor are just a few examples of how this circuit can be used. Thanks to a CV input, it is possible to modulate parameters.
New in version 4 is a matrix display, which makes browsing through menus a lot easier. The microSD card slot is now situated on the module’s front panel. An integrated precision clock allows users to employ the circuit as a tuner or for generating reference signals.
The Disting’s algorithms are divided into five banks with four groups each. In detail, the following modes of operation are available:
Bank 1 / Group 1:
Precision adder with integer voltage offsets
Four quadrant multiplier with integer multiply / divide
Full-wave rectifier
Minimum / maximum detector
Bank 1 / Group 2:
Linear / exponential converter
Quantizer with selectable scales
Comparator with adjustable hysteresis
Dual wave shaper
Bank 1 / Group 3:
Sample and hold with noise source and adjustable slew rate
Slew rate limiter with linear and exponential slew
Pitch and envelope tracker
Clockable delay / echo
Bank 1 / Group 4:
LFO with through zero frequency control and wave shaping
Clockable LFO with multiply / divide and wave shaping
VCO with linear FM (Sine and saw outputs)
VCO with wave shaping (Saw / triangle and pulse outputs)
Bank 2 / Group 1:
Precision adder with fractional voltage offsets
Voltage controlled delay line (For vibrato, chorus and flange effects)
Clockable ping pong delay
Clockable ping pong delay with input pan control
Bank 2 / Group 2:
Resonator for drum synthesis
Vocoder with twelve bands
Phaser with up to ten stages
Bit crusher
Bank 2 / Group 3:
Tape delay with voltage controlled tape speed
State variable filter with smoothly variable filter type
Andrew Ostler (aka Oz) has gained a well-earned reputation not only with his do-it-all Disting module, but by providing a range of CV and audio signal converters that allow computers talk fluently to modulars, and vice versa.
