erica synths EG2 Black Envelope Generator Instruction Manual
INTRODUCTIONS
THANK YOU FOR PURCHASING THIS ERICA SYNTHS BLACK SERIES MODULE!
The Erica Black Series includes high-end modules with unique functionality and
superior build quality. Only the best, highest quality components are used,
all inputs and outputs are protected against undesired overvoltage. When
designing the Black Series, we placed an emphasis on usability with the goal
of providing an enjoyable user experience. Big knobs are assigned to functions
that make differences in sound. The Erica Black Series consists of a range of
modules that are needed to put together an entire synth. Enjoy!
The Erica Synths Envelope Generator 2 is a re-triggerable, looping envelope generator with some unconventional features that are very useful for experimental setups. What sets the Black EG2 apart from other envelope generators is its optional GATE LENGTH setting, which allows for generating full ADSR envelopes even if a short trigger is used at the input. Likewise, in LOOP mode, the module outputs a full ADSR envelope instead of a classical AD envelope. The gate length is both manual and CV controlled, which allows for using this envelope generator in compact modular setups controlled by trigger sequencers only.
