THE C.M.S. 9001 OSCILLATOR MODULE IS A PRECISION VOLTAGE CONTROLLED ANALOG WAVEFORM GENERATOR. SINE, TRIANGLE, SAWTOOTH, AND VARIABLE WIDTH PULSE ARE AVAILABLE SIMULTANEOUSLY. IN ADDITION ALL 4 WAVEFORMS CAN BE MIXED IN ANY PROPORTION USING THE INTEGRATED 4 CHANNEL MIXER PROVIDING INVERTED AND NON INVERTED OUTPUTS. THIS MODULE IS PARTICULARLY RECOMMENDED FOR GENERATING UNUSUAL CONTROL WAVEFORMS AND COMPLEX AUDIO SIGNALS IN THE STUDIO. THE MIXER CAN ALSO BE ISOLATED FROM THE VCO BY SIMPLY PLUGGING INTO THE NORMALIZED INPUTS. THE MIXER ALSO PROCESSES CONTROL VOLTAGES AND CAN BE USED AS A STAND ALONE INVERTER

THE OUTPUT FREQUENCY RANGE IS FROM .03HZ TO 20,000HZ IN TWO RANGES WITHOUT EXTERNAL CONTROL VOLTAGES AND THE CONTROL VOLTAGE RANGE IS 10 OCTAVES ON EACH RANGE. AN EXTRA LARGE COMMUNICATION STYLE CONTROL KNOB LABELED "FIXED VOLTAGE" IS THE MAIN FREQUENCY CONTROL. A FINE TUNE ADJUSTMENT KNOB IS PROVIDED FOR ACCURATE TUNING AND PRECISE CONTROL OF PHASE RELATIONSHIPS. A FRONT PANEL CALIBRATED V/OCT INPUT ACCEPTS KEYBOARD CONTROL AND IS PRE-WIRED TO THE KEYBOARD BUSS. AC AND DC MODULATION WITH ATTENUATORS AS WELL AS VARIABLE PULSE WIDTH MODULATION IS PROVIDED. PULSE CAN BE MANUALLY VARIED FROM -5% TO +105%. AN OCTAVE SWITCH WITH FRONT PANEL CALIBRATION IS INCLUDED. AN LFO MODE SWITCH WITH A LED RATE MONITOR IS ALSO PROVIDED.

THE INTERNAL C.M.S. SUB-MODULE ASSURES PRECISION TRACKING AND STABILITY INDEPENDENT OF TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY CHANGES.

THE UNIQUE "UNISYNC" CIRCUIT ENABLES THE 9001 TO SYNC TO ANY EXTERNAL WAVEFORM. SYNC CAN BE ADDED TO GUITAR, VOICE ETC. ALSO VARIOUS SYNC EFFECTS CAN BE OBTAINED DEPENDING ON WHAT SHAPE IS FED INTO THE SYNC JACK.

THE LARGE, HIGH RESOLUTION, BLACK ANODIZED FRONT PANEL (10.3" X 3") IS LAVISHLY EQUIPPED WITH ERGONOMIC FLOWCHART GRAPHICS, DETAILED GRADUATIONS FOR PRECISE CONTROL, AND HIGH QUALITY COMPONENTS FOR RELIABLE, SERVICE FREE OPERATION.
