West Pest

Description

• West coast-style monophonic synthesizer with additive elements
• Controllable via MIDI, CV, and integrated button keyboard
• Fully patchable – use West Pest’s components as separate modules with external devices or reroute its internal patching. (It’s like having 8 individual modules.)
• 32 step sequencer with up to 13 storable presets
• Generative sequencing mode
• Clock-synced arpeggiator
• Step sequencer can be manipulated & transposed via MIDI and the integrated button keyboard
• Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizer developed 100% analog oscillator
• Oscillator waveforms – sine, triangle, and saw – Waveforms can be combined
• Oscillator includes frequency modulation (FM)
• Pittsburgh Modular Synthesizer famous wave folder/shaper circuit – folds inputted waves back onto themselves to increase harmonic content
• PGH dynamics section – an alternative to an envelope generator and a VCA, the dynamics controller is a Pittsburgh Modular invention that adds a dimension of control over a vactrol-less lowpass gate circuit, adding release time. (read more on this in the user guide)
• Dual range analog LFO with square and triangle wave outputs.
• LFO Range High: 2 Hz to 500 Hz Low: 41 seconds to 5 Hz
• Digital multi-mod tool – modulation control via CV, random generator, and extra LFO and envelope generator
• Internal clock with tap tempo and can be clocked via an external source.
• Built-in clock divider
• Can be used standalone in its included case or removed and used as a eurorack format module
• Specifications for when used as a eurorack module
• Width when used as a module = 40hp
• Depth = 25mm
• 250mA power draw when running +12V rail
• 190mA power draw when running -12V
• Input voltage range of oscillator = 0-10V
• Included in the box – 1x West Pest, 1x West Pest wall-wart power supply, 5x Amazing Nazca Noodles Patch Cables, 1x 3.5mm to 5 pin MIDI Din pigtails and pizzazz (pizzazz’s presence not guaranteed)
