Module based on the YM3812 FM synth chip

This module made by "Reckless Experimentation Audio LLC" is based on the YM3812 FM synthesizer chip, and its companion the YM3014 digital to analog converter. This module is optimized for use with a CV and Gate controls. Six voices are available for simultaneous sound generation. Rhythm mode on the YM3812 is enabled producing 5 distinct percussion sounds.

The YM3812 voices have 2 operators per voice that can be configured in either FM or AM modulation.

Configuration is saved to non volatile memory. Along with the last saved or loaded instrument settings for each channel. Saved settings are loaded on power-up.

All sound generating parameters in the YM3812 are editable. 22 instruments and 6 percussion mode settings can be saved into non-volatile memory. Several fully editable instruments come per programed. Such as “Synth”, “Piano”, “Galaxy”, ”Flute”, “Stings”, “8Bit” and “Drums”.. The parameters of “AM Depth” and Vibrato Depth” effect all the voices on all channels and are saved separately form the instruments.

Each channel is controlled by a 0-5V CV signal and a 5V gate input. The CV is continuously sampled for each channel allowing for pitch changes during the gated part of a note and during the release. CV is required for use, not connecting a CV input will produce the lowest tone on that channel.

Audio out is provided though a 1/8” Mono jack. Output impedance less than 1000 ohms.
CV inputs are zener diode protected to the zero to five volt range.

The input jacks are spaced 0.350” apart, bulky patch cables may not fit next to one another. Most high quality patch cables will work just fine.

Polarity protected.
Compatible with +-15V systems.
