Expert Sleepers - Disting mk4

The disting is a many-in-1 multifunction module, offering a variety of CV and audio processes, including a selection of oscillators (LFOs/VCOs). All algorithms have two high-precision inputs and outputs, and a third control input, exposed on a front panel knob and a CV input.

The disting is also a sample (WAV) file and MIDI file player, with a variety of options for sample triggering, playback speed etc.

There are currently 84 distinct algorithms. The first 16 ('classic disting') are:

• Precision Adder with integer voltage offsets
• Four Quadrant Multiplier with integer multiply/divide
• Full-wave Rectifier
• Minimum/maximum
• Linear/Exponential Converter
• Quantizer with selectable scales
• Comparator with adjustable hysteresis
• Dual Waveshaper wavefolder and triangle-to-sine shaper
• Sample and Hold with noise source and adjustable slew rate
• Slew Rate Limiter with linear and exponential slew
• Pitch and Envelope Tracker
• Clockable Delay/Echo
• LFO with through zero frequency control and waveshaping
• Clockable LFO with multiply/divide and waveshaping
• VCO with linear FM sine and saw outputs
• VCO with waveshaping saw/triangle and pulse outputs

The remaining algorithms are:

• Precision Adder with fractional voltage offsets
