NEPTUNE PITCH ADJUSTER AND VOICE SYNTH619
Bend
The Pitch Bend input allows you to control pitch bend of either the Pitch Adjust or Voice Synth (depending on what
is currently selected in the MIDI Input section - see “MIDI Input”). The pitch bend could be controlled from a Pitch
Bend CV output of an RPG-8, for example.
Vibrato
The Mod Wheel input allows you to control the Vibrato amount of either the Pitch Adjust section or Voice Synth (de-
pending on what is currently selected in the MIDI Input section - see “MIDI Input”). The Vibrato could be controlled
from a Mod Wheel CV output of an RPG-8, for example.
Formant
The Formant Shift input allows you to control the Shift parameter in the Formant section from a CV source on an-
other device. The Formant Shift parameter accepts bipolar control signals (-63 to +64).
CV Out
These control voltage (CV) outputs can be used for modulating other device parameters from Neptune:
Pitch
The Pitch output allows you to control the pitch of other devices from the Pitch Adjust section, either directly or via
the Transpose section (depending on if Transpose is active or not). The Pitch CV corresponds to the pitch of the pitch
adjusted and transposed signal. The Pitch output could be connected to the OSC Pitch CV input of another synth de-
vice, for example.
Amplitude
Neptune features an internal envelope follower. The Amplitude output sends out a control signal from this envelope
follower based on the audio input level to Neptune. The Amplitude output could be connected to the Master Volume
or Level CV input of a synth device, for example.
Audio In
Route your audio input signal(s) to the Left (and Right) audio input(s) to the right on the rear panel.
! If you want to use Neptune in mono, connect only to the Left input.
Voice Synth Out
Connect to these outputs if you want to break out the audio from the Voice Synth as separate signals and, for exam-
ple, route to a separate Mix Channel for separate processing.
! When these are connected, the Voice Synth audio will be removed from the main Audio Out outputs.
Audio Out
The Left and Right outputs are the main stereo outputs of Neptune. Here, the audio from the Pitch Adjust, Transpose
and Formant sections are routed. If the Voice Synth Sep Output (see “Voice Synth Out”) are not connected, the Voice
Synth audio output are also routed to the main outputs.
! If you want to use Neptune in mono, connect only to the Left output.
