Voltage above +5V is clipped, as are signals below 0V. This voltage clamping works with Time Machine’s subtle volume normalization to turn complex modulation into original temporal phenomena.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith cables patched into the VCAs the sliders become attenuators, meaning that they control volume levels and modulation depth simultaneously. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the taps are audible they also contribute to the feedback, making this more than a simple external VCA. This is a way to tap into the engine of a complex granular delay.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 HP \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e37mm deep (from the back of the faceplate to the back of the power cable)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003edraws under 10ma from each of +12V and -12V rails\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eincludes 16-pin to 2x 10-pin Eurorack cable to power both modules with one spot on your bus board\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan\u003eincludes cable for connecting to Time Machine\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e This VCA expander works with the OAM Time Machine (DIY and assembled), Tiny Time Machine, and any other version of the Time Machine that runs the default firmware and has all of the expander pins.
