This module possesses two functions. The first generates an envelope from the audio signal connected to “Follower in”. The “Time” setting determines the detail for the envelope follower. The lower the value, the more the input signal variations will be respected. This setting relies on the “Time Choice” which can be “short” or “long”. In the first case, the analysis of the input signal will be very precise, generating a signal with fast variation. The calculation power required is thus heavier than the second position, where the output signal will have slow variation.

This module also allows you to generate a trigger signal. The triggering is calculated in relation to a certain threshold set with the “Threshold” dial and the signal connected to the “Comparator in”. If no signal is connected to this input, an internal connection will link the follow output to the comparator.

This module generates two types of trigger, a positive trigger, and a negative. When the comparator input signal exceeds the threshold, the positive trigger is activated, while the negative trigger is cancelled. When the input signal goes below the threshold, the opposite happens. A lighting indicator allows the observation of the positive trigger signal.
