Poodleface - is a 3-in-1 fully analog dirty good time. Three unique effects that can be used individually or collectively. Self-patching is encouraged!
VIDEO
OVERDRIVE:
Discrete analog overdrive circuit inspired by the mini Moog mixer section. Tonal characteristics vary depending on the amplitude of your source signal. Ranging from soft-saturation to full-blown transistor overdrive and distortion. Use the second pair of in/out to feed the signal back into itself for wild “sub-octave” effect . Or, send your overdriven signal into the neighboring filter and then back into the overdrive for untamed feedback effects. This circuit is designed to be pushed to the max! For line-level signals, it's recommended to scale up to Eurorack levels for best results.
FILTER:
Classic OTA-style analog high-pass/lowpass resonant filter. The filter can be soft and sweet, or, add a little resonance and prepare for some angry screams. For both lo & hi pass configurations, the filter is capable of self-oscillation that can be used as a dirty sine wave oscillator. Volt per octave pitch tracking, and CV modulation with attenuator included for full control over the shape of your sound.
SAMPLE & HOLD:
A precision sample & hold circuit with a low droop rate. Fully analog. Normalled internal clock is configured for some audio rate decimation effects to mid-speed sample & hold. However, the external clock input allows you to use this S&H section as a traditional sample and hold (semi-random/stepped voltage source, sample rate reduction). Hint, for wild sample rate audio effects; the sample and hold can be clocked by patching the poodle’s filter output into the rate input. Just max out the resonance and modulate the cutoff to taste.
