A built-in Guitar Preamp.INSERT CARTRIDGEThe Z-DSP contains a simple monophonic Guitarpreamp that can be enabled by 2 jumpers at the backof the unit.T

Looking into Voltage Control.The Z-DSP contain 2 types of Voltage Control (VC),one is the regular analog control such as theFeedback gain and VC over

Looking into Voltage Control. - Continput accepts positive voltages from 0-5V thoughhigher values are fine and will not damage the module.For some son

Understanding Clocking.Probably one of the most powerful features of theZ-DSP is the CLOCK input.Your computer works by having a processor (CPU)execut

Understanding Clocking. - ContinuedAs we’ve discussed, the Z-DSP has a built in DSPprocessor. Along with the processor is a pair of 24bitanalog to dig

Understanding Clocking. - ContinuedTo start, let’s use the square wave output from aZ3000 VCO. First set the PWM knob to its centerposition, then set

Understanding Clocking. - ContinuedAnything is game for the CLOCK input… Modulate thepulse width of your new clock; set it to a narrow pulseso that th

Program Switching.The Z-DSP cartridges can contain up to 8 programs,each program being a set of mathematical algorithmsthat manipulate digital data. A

Program Switching. - Continuedinput the direction will be reversed. To control program switching from an LFO or envelopegenerator, use the VC-PRG inpu

That should be enough to get you started... There's alot to explore in the Z-DSP, don't be afraid to getfunky with it! TM

Introduction.Welcome to the world of digital signal processing!The Z-DSP is a modular synthesizer component thatcan process and generate audio using a

Getting Started.The Z-DSP itself contains no programs, it loadsprograms from a cartridge. If the module is poweredup without a cartridge inserted it w

Signal Flow. INSERT CARTRIDGEThe Z-DSP contains two distinct audio channels,labeled Left (also “1”) and Right (also “2”). Theterminology of “Left” and

Analog Feedback. INSERT CARTRIDGEFeedback is the process of taking an output andapplying it (“feeding” it) back into an input. Thistechnique is widely

Digital Feedback. INSERT CARTRIDGESome algorithms process feedback internally, in thedigital domain. The texture of digital feedback is muchdifferent
