Nano Modules VCV Random

Random CV generator and triggerable sample-and-hold.

10 HP Eurorack module

Random CV generator with four output transition types and a triggerable sample-and-hold function.

Features

  • A rear switch can normalize the Linear Output to all four CV inputs; the attenuverters adjust each parameter's modulation amount.
  • Signal Input uses an external voltage in place of a random voltage on each trigger; Random Amount has no effect while it is patched.

Controls & Jacks (20)

  • Probability CV Attenuverter— Bipolar attenuverter for the Probability CV input: center is off, clockwise attenuates, and counter-clockwise inverts.
  • Rate CV Attenuverter— Bipolar attenuverter for the Rate CV input: center is off, clockwise attenuates, and counter-clockwise inverts.
  • Signal Input— External voltage source used instead of a random voltage on each trigger; Random Amount has no effect while this input is patched.
  • Rate CV Input— External voltage input for modulating the internal clock rate; its voltage is summed with the Rate slider position.
  • Probability CV Input— External voltage input for modulating the probability of a new random value; its voltage is summed with the Probability slider position.
  • Trigger Input— External trigger input. When patched, it replaces the internal Rate clock; Probability still probabilistically filters received triggers.
  • Random Amount— Blends the previous value with a random value and affects the output-voltage range.
  • Shape— Controls the transition shape to each new random value across all four CV outputs.
  • Shape CV Input— External voltage input for modulating transition shape; its voltage is summed with the Shape slider position.
  • Random Amount CV Attenuverter— Bipolar attenuverter for the Random Amount CV input: center is off, clockwise attenuates, and counter-clockwise inverts.
  • Trigger Output— Emits a pulse whenever a new value is generated.
  • Shape CV Attenuverter— Bipolar attenuverter for the Shape CV input: center is off, clockwise attenuates, and counter-clockwise inverts.
  • Probability— Sets the probability that a new random value is generated on each clock cycle.
  • Smooth Output— Random CV output with a smooth transition whose speed is controlled by Shape, holding at its target until the cycle ends.
  • Step Output— Random CV output that jumps immediately at 0% Shape and transitions in 16 steps at 100% Shape.
  • Random Amount CV Input— External voltage input for modulating random range; its voltage is summed with the Random Amount slider position.
  • Exponential Output— Random CV output with an exponential transition that becomes linear at 100% Shape.
  • Rate— Sets the internal clock tempo.
  • Linear Output— Random CV output that reaches the new value immediately at 0% Shape or across the full clock cycle at 100% Shape.
  • Offset Range— Selects unipolar 0 to 10 V operation when up, or bipolar -5 to 5 V operation when down.
