Attenuverter that go from -1V to +1V
Hello!
I'm new to the modular world and really enthusiastic. Been playin hardware synth for years.
I'm finding that the attenuverter I have are difficult to set the sweet spot. Im almost always using them in the "11 to 1 o´clock" setting.
I have the ALM O/A/x2 and Circuit Abbey Invy.
I was wondering if there is any module that has the whole spam of the knob to be just that region.
I'm guessing for the Offset is going from -1v to +1v instead of -5v to +5v.
In the attenuverter section and don't know how the circuit works, maybe is not called "-1v to +1v", but the idea is to have only the range that the knob is between "11 to 1 o´clock" in the whole "7 to 5 o'clock".
Thanks everyone!

You can always use two sections. One to attenuate the signal and another to attenuvert over the range set by the first section.

This isn't an attenuator, but it's a precision offset generator. You could use this along with a ring modulator to do what you want, sending your signal you want to attenuate to its input and controlling the mod amount with this.

There's also this very well tought handy duo ( that I consider )

I have the QSlider in my want list. Im buying it as soon as its available and it should be in a couple of days.Benoist wrote: ↑Thu Apr 08, 2021 12:27 pmThere's also this very well tought handy duo ( that I consider )

But the Qslider doesnt have inputs, so its only an offset. Probably the most precise one, but doesnt resolve the attenuetor part.
thanks!

Ill consider it amoung the QSlider for precise offset

If you are up for some DIY there's a nice circuit here: https://kassu2000.blogspot.com/2018/04/ ... mixer.html.
It is less sensitive in the center so easier to adjust near 0. There's a board and panel for sale, although it is simple enough to build with a blank panel and perfboard. It's also a simple hack to an existing module, just a pair of resistors soldered across the pins of the pot.

Hello!
I find the Vermona QuadroPOL:
https://www.modulargrid.net/e/vermona-quadropol
Anyone has experience with it? Will it work as anattenuator with "less sensitive" / "less extreme" movement around the center position?
