SoundForce Dual ADSR Module (20HP)

Full Description

High performance digital module

Accurately recreating the response and sound of a vintage Japanese synthesizer in today's world can be difficult. Modern equivalents are required to capture the essence and spirit of vintage equipment. with this in mind, to provide smooth and stable envelope curves at high frequencies, Dual ADSR is powered by a 120Mhz ARM Cortex-M microcontroller with a built-in DAC. This modern digital chip controls the implementation of CV via software, streamlining the functionality of the Dual ADSR, allowing for different time ranges of curve responses.

Choose your time range

Each sound source is different and varies from patch to patch depending on what modules are used and the sound you're aiming for. Providing you with complete flexibility to cater to any sound source, SoundForce Dual ADSR Module includes three-time ranges. Short is the fastest response, with an attack as low as 0.2ms to 1s, decay of 0.5ms to 2s and release of 0.5ms to 2s. Medium operates with an attack from 1ms to 3s, decay of 2ms to 12s and release of 2ms to 12s. Large offers a huge jump in each stage of the envelope, with attack ranging from 9ms to 60s, decay of 30ms to 30s and release of 30ms to 30s. Setting the shape to exponential and the time to medium is the closest representation of the fabled Japanese synthesizer response.
