Joranalogue Walk 4

MUSICAL FEATURES

An analog accumulator, which can be described as a "battery for CV," is a circuit that accumulates voltage and gradually charges or discharges it according to the trigger signal. Walk 4 is a powerful 10HP voltage step generation module that combines four such accumulators with a clock generator, four white noise sources, and an automatic reset system.

The accumulator is primarily used to create staircase waveforms. Each time a trigger is received, the stored voltage changes by a set amount. This change can be set directly from an external input, or by the common module parameters trend, volatility, and constraint, or by a combination of these.

Trend acts as a common input that adds a fixed value to all accumulators. Constrain limits the voltage to prevent it from deviating too much from the reference value. Volatility activates the noise generator, adding a random element with each trigger. This makes Walk 4 not just a four-channel arpeggiator and subharmonic generator, but also a four-channel random walk CV and colored noise source.

Each accumulator has its own independent value and trigger input, plus full voltage control, allowing for a vast range of stochastic patching possibilities.It can also be used as a high-precision master clock with wide range, 1V/Oct tracking, and external reset capability.

A step further than sample and hold, Walk 4 brings a vintage analogue computer element to your Eurorack system.
