Description

The Ballista Blast's 4 HP modulation expander: an envelope or an LFO of its own, sent with its own depth to the Ballista Blast's harmonics, emphasis, parameter, pitch or amplitude, or to an assignable destination (the Ballista Blast's own envelope, or a second expander). Its settings are saved with the Ballista Blast's presets, and a Ballista Blast takes two of them.

Key features

  • SHAPE/ATTACK: the LFO's shape or the envelope's attack; TIME/DECAY: the LFO's rate or the envelope's decay or release
  • DEPTH: the depth sent to the selected destination, an attenuator or, in the Ballista Blast's options, an attenuverter
  • Destination button and lamps: HRMN, EMPHS, PARAM, PITCH, AMP and ASGN
  • Three envelope modes (AR, AD, ASR) and four LFO modes (free, synced, clocked, both), set in the Ballista Blast's Mod menu
  • CV inputs for SHAPE/ATTACK, TIME/DECAY and DEPTH (-5 V to +5 V), and a CLK/TG input
  • Linked to the Ballista Blast by a ribbon cable on its expander port 1 or 2, powered through it
  • 21 mm deep
