Q210 Complex Noise

The Q210 Complex Noise is noisemaker's playground. Though capable of standard white noise fare, the Q210 can help provide you with decidedly boundary pushing timbres, not usually found in your typical 5U module.  Beyond noise, the Q210 is also comfortable generating random gates, which when routed to VCAS or drum sounds, can help launch your next ambient composition into science fiction territory. Depending on how you approach the module, the Q210 can be a tame texture ready to mix in with a completed track. However if you push it, the Q210 can become the basis of an entire soundscape, especially when paired with filters, VCAS, and envelopes. Sounds both dramatic and explosive are quite easy to conjure.  To start, here is a list of all of the functions available on the module. Classic transistor noise Audio rate chaotic signal output (a true analog non-linear oscillator based on Chua's 1983 landmark circuit XOX style metal signal output for hi-hat and cymbal generation Grainy signal circuit — This section of the module provides sounds which can range sound effects like vinyl record simulator, to a campfire crackling, all the way onto the loud roar of bold a jet engine flying overhead. In other words, you can achieve delicate textures or create terrifying bold sounds. Random gates with three selectable inputs Distortion of external signals passed through the GRAINY section External clock division / sub-sub-octave generation. — Feed in an external signal, set the GRAINY section to EXT, set RAND GATE switch to GRAINY and then take your signal output from the RAND GATES jack. Now, with the combination of the top two knobs, you can dial in a loud and low synth sound which will mix well with the original signal.'   DOWNLOAD USER MANUAL Specifications: Panel Size: Single Width 2.125"w x 8.75" (Moog Unit Format) Audio Input/Output Signals:: 10Vpp Functions: White Noise, Pink Noise, Chaotic (Non-Linear)Noise, Metal Noise (X0X), Grainy Noise with selectable input, Distortion of exrternal signal via Grainy section, Selectable (via jumper) SYNC of rand gates utilizing either the Reset or Clock of the divider circuit.
