=== Original Peaks Features ===
 +
 +
* A SWISS-ARMY KNIFE FOR PERCUSSIVE PATCHES
 +
* Peaks is a dual-channel module – making it very useful for duophonic patches or for controlling/synthesizing the kick/snare rhythmic backbone of a patch.
 +
** Peaks provides 4 different functions in a small 8-HP package: ADSR, LFO / Tap tempo LFO, and drum synth.
 +
** Their common point?
 +
*** They are all about generating an audio or CV signal in response to a trigger, and are all focused on rhythmic works.
 +
* Four in one…
 +
* ADSR envelope generator
 +
** Segment durations ranging from 0.2ms to 8s.
 +
** Quartic attack, exponential decay, exponential release.
 +
* LFO and tap-tempo LFO
 +
** 0.03 Hz to 160 Hz.
 +
** 5 basic waveforms: square, triangle, sine, stepped, random.
 +
** Waveform variations and morphing for each of these: PWM, slope, folding/harmonics, step size, interpolation.
 +
** Phase at reset control.
 +
** Tap LFO can lock onto irregular rhythms.
 +
* Drum synth
 +
** Channel 1: 808 kick model with extra parameters (tune, punch).
 +
** Channel 2: 808 snare model with extra parameters (tune, decay).
 +
** Channel 2: A specific combination of settings transform the snare into a modelled 808 hi-hat.
 +
* Control modes
 +
** Twin: Channel 1&2 share the same parameters but can be triggered independently.
 +
** Split: Channel 1 is edited by knobs 1&2, channel 2 edited by knobs 3&4, with a simplified 2-parameter control scheme.
 +
** Expert: Channel 1&2 are completely independent.
 +
* Specifications
 +
** Inputs: 100k impedance, threshold at 0.6V.
 +
** 16-bit CV/audio generation with 48kHz sample rate.
 +
** Output level: 0 to +8V for envelopes, 10Vpp for LFOs and drum signals.
