read moreExploring the Versatility of SLOPES: A Quad Slope Generator for Eurorack
In the article "Exploring the Versatility of SLOPES: A Quad Slope Generator for Eurorack," the ST Modular SLOPES module is discussed. This quad slope generator has integrated gate division and can generate eight control voltages that can be changed primarily with the potentiometers RISE and FALL. Each slope triggers with a trigger or gate signal and outputs a voltage from 0 to +10V. The RATE knob changes the rate of an internal gate that is divided by 2, 4, 8, and 16 and fed to the four slope gate inputs. The module can be synchronized with external modules by inserting a clock or trigger signal into the CLK input. Overall, the article highlights how SLOPES is a valuable tool for creating organic and moving changes that match the rhythmic pattern of your patches.
