WARRANTY
RTFM – be so kind as read the manual. It will provide you with the information
you need to fully indulge the module you just purchased – for which we like to
thank you.
Enjoy your sound experiences, dear sonic traveler.
Beginning from the product’s purchase date a 1-year warranty is guaranteed for
each product in case of any manufacturing errors or other functional
deficiencies during runtime.
The warranty does not apply in the case of:
- damage caused by misuse
- mechanical damage arising from careless treatment (dropping, vigorous shaking, mishandling, etc.)
- damage caused by liquids or powders penetrating the device
- heat damage caused by overexposure to sunlight or heating
- electric damage caused by improper connecting
The warranty covers replacement or repair, as decided by us.
Please contact us via email for a return authorization before sending
anything. Shipping costs of sending a module back for servicing is paid by the
customer.
Device complies with all EU regulations concerning RoHS lead-free
manufacturing and WEEE disposal

FIRMWARE UPDATE
download the latest firmware/bank when available from:
http://airways.endorphin.es
Power OFF your modular system:
Hold ‘mode’ while powering your system again:
You will see the status LED will blink blue:
Connect the audio output from your computer headphones output to one of the
audio inputs of the module with simple mono or stereo cable.
Press PLAY and wait 2+ minutes.
Use an file player that does not apply audio compression to the file.
During the update process, you should observe that the BLUE light is blinking
faster than initially.
The module will reboot automatically after the new firmware was installed
Make sure you don’t input any extra sounds during the update process (reminder
signals from your calendar, etc.). When the status LED flashes RED – that means
the signal is too low or too high – just reset the firmware aquire process by
pressing MODE once.
IMPORTANT: To prevent errors during the audio playback of the firmware, please use any audio editor without any effects applied (EQ, etc).
Input 1 is internally connected, or so-called ‘normalled’ to input 2 when nothing is plugged into input 2.
FILTER MODES
• 24 DB/OCT TRANSISTOR LADDER zero-delay feedback low-pass filter: Modelled
after the famous Minimoog filter.
• MS-20 12 DB/OCT zero-delay feedback OTA-low-pass filter: Be careful, that
filter has a very powerful and dirty resonance.
• 12 DB/OCT LO-PASS GATE, non-resonant zero-delay feedback filter where instead
of the resonance, we control the DECAY closing time of the virtual patrol.
While ‘pinging’ Cutoff CV with a short pulse of voltage and adjusting the
decay will give us that distinct ‘Buchla Bongo’ sound.
• 12 DB/OCT RESONANT LO-PASS GATE – a variation of the zero-delay feedback
vactrol filter model III with fixed fast decay and full control over the
resonance.
The resonance of the sound is ringing, just as it may be expected from a
typical LPG.
• 12 DB/OCT DJ ISOLATOR-STYLE BIPOLAR zero-delay feedback state-variable
filter: Sound is unfiltered when the Cutoff knob is in the middle/noon position.
It filters high frequencies/low-pass when turning the knob CCW and filters low
frequencies/hi-pass when turning the knob CW from its middle position.
• 12 DB/OCT HIGH-PASS STATE-VARIABLE FILTER: (zero delay feedback), single hi-
pass on full knob range
• 12 DB/OCT BAND-PASS STATE VARIABLE zero-delay feedback filter with ‘cutoff’
knob you choose band’s center point and with Resonance knob the width of the
band.
• COMB FILTER: It recreates a series of harmonically related amounts of notch
filters. In a static state, it sounds similar to a phaser, but with modulation
applied to the frequency, it comes closer to a flanger. With resonance set to
full CW, it becomes a resonator.

QUICK AND DIRTY PATCH EXAMPLE
ALL-ACCESS PASS
For a wider stereo image.
Pressing and holding the MODE button longer than 2,5 seconds will enable the HPF knob to set the allpass amount to OUT 2.
Full CCW knob position will set zero delays while full CW will increase OUT2 channel delay to up to 1/3 seconds. Small amounts of allpass delay will create the stereo widening effect. Experiment with the amount to your taste.
NOTE: All changes in the All-Access Pass settings are saved/stored and will be restored when the module is powered up the next time.
