Tallin
Dual discrete-core voltage controlled amplifier with overdrive. Each of two independent channels features simultaneous linear and exponential CV inputs, a volume knob ranging from -80 dB to +18 dB, a soft-clip circuit, and a switchable overdrive offering two tube-amplifier distortion responses. DC-coupled signal path supports CV processing.429
Capabilities 2
- Overdrive / Tube Distortionoverdrive
- Two distinct overdrive responses: symmetric (3rd harmonic, push-pull tube) and asymmetric (2nd harmonic, single-ended tube), selectable via a 3-position switch per channel.429
- Voltage-Controlled Amplifiervca
- Dual-channel discrete-core VCA with simultaneous linear and exponential CV inputs, DC-coupled signal path, and switchable tube-style overdrive.429
Jacks 8 — 6 in / 2 out
| Name | Signal | Voltage | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inputs (6) | |||
| Expo CV (ch a) | cv | 0V to 8V | Exponential-response CV input for channel a. Normalized to 8V internally. Optimized for 0–8V; handles up to 10V.429 |
| Expo CV (ch b) | cv | 0V to 8V | Exponential-response CV input for channel b. Normalized to 8V internally. Optimized for 0–8V; handles up to 10V.429 |
| Linear CV (ch a) | cv | 0V to 8V | Linear-response CV input for channel a. Normalized to 8V internally. Optimized for 0–8V; handles up to 10V.429 |
| Linear CV (ch b) | cv | 0V to 8V | Linear-response CV input for channel b. Normalized to 8V internally. Optimized for 0–8V; handles up to 10V.429 |
| Signal In (ch a) | mixed | — | Audio or CV signal input for channel a. Accepts Eurorack levels (typically 10Vpp, up to 20Vpp). DC-coupled.429 |
| Signal In (ch b) | mixed | — | Audio or CV signal input for channel b. Accepts Eurorack levels (typically 10Vpp, up to 20Vpp). DC-coupled.429 |
| Outputs (2) | |||
| Output (ch a) | mixed | — | Amplified output for channel a. Soft-clipping engages above 18Vpp.429 |
| Output (ch b) | mixed | — | Amplified output for channel b. Soft-clipping engages above 18Vpp.429 |
Parameters 4
| Name | Type | Range | Behavior |
|---|---|---|---|
| Drive (ch a) | switch | 0 – 2 | 3-position switch selecting overdrive mode: middle = clean linear operation; up = symmetric overdrive (3rd harmonic, push-pull tube); down = asymmetric overdrive (2nd harmonic, single-ended tube).429 |
| Drive (ch b) | switch | 0 – 2 | 3-position switch selecting overdrive mode: middle = clean linear operation; up = symmetric overdrive (3rd harmonic, push-pull tube); down = asymmetric overdrive (2nd harmonic, single-ended tube).429 |
| Volume (ch a) | knob | -80dB – 18dB | Controls attenuation or gain for channel a. Minimum position silences the channel regardless of CV. Central (12 o'clock) position yields 0 dB with no CV or 8V CV. Above 12 o'clock engages boost up to +18 dB. Soft-clip engages when output exceeds 18Vpp.429 |
| Volume (ch b) | knob | -80dB – 18dB | Controls attenuation or gain for channel b. Minimum position silences the channel regardless of CV. Central (12 o'clock) position yields 0 dB with no CV or 8V CV. Above 12 o'clock engages boost up to +18 dB. Soft-clip engages when output exceeds 18Vpp.429 |
