A-155 Modular analogue
sequencer
2 rows of 8 steps with knobs and 2 rows of 8
steps switches.

Features of the analog rows (knobs):
- 8 potentiometers (knobs)
- lower row: Scale (knob), upper row: 1V/2V/4V (octave range switch for
exact VCO control)
- Glide time (knob), same as portamento or slew limiter
- Glide Control (control input for switching glide on/off)
- S&H Control (control input for internal S&H, works like
A-148)
- Pre Glide/S&H-Out (analog output before S&H and glide unit,
especially required when external audio signals are used as inputs of the lower row)
- Post Glide/S&H-Out (analog output after S&H and glide unit)
- lower row: external inputs for the 8 steps (switched jack sockets),
control signals or audio signals may be used as inputs, the knobs of the lower row are
working in this case as attenuators
Features of the trigger rows (switches):
- 4 Trigger/Gate tracks with 2 rows of switches
- toggle switches of 1-0-1 type (with middle position), which can be
used to send a trigger/gate to the track above or below or to send no trigger/gate (middle
position)
- 3 trigger rows (i.e. short pulse for each step set, pulse width
corresponds to the pulse width of the clock/step input signal)
- 1 gate row (i.e. a high signal is applied during the length of the
step set)
Control inputs and buttons:
- Step (defines the tempo of the sequence, same as clock or trigger
input)
- Reset (resets all rows to step 1)
- Start (starts the sequence at the momentary position)
- Stop (stops the sequence at the momentary position)
Step and Reset are compatible to the MIDI interface A-190, i.e. in
combination with the A-190 the A-155 may be synchronized via MIDI. A quantizing module
(A-156) to quantize the infinite analog voltages coming from A-155 into discrete semitone
steps (multiples of 1/12V) will be probably available together with the A-155. Without
MIDI interface e.g. a LFO rectangle output can be used to define the tempo of the
sequence.
Width: 50TE/50HP, Strombedarf/Current: 150 mA
