Interpolating Scanner

8-Channel Interpolating Scanner with Integrated VCAs

This feature-packed Eurorack module combines an 8-channel interpolating scanner with a powerful array of 8 independent VCAs, delivering unparalleled flexibility for dynamic audio and CV routing. Designed for creative sound design and intricate signal processing, this module is a powerhouse for any modular synth setup.

Key Features:

1. Interpolating Scanner
   8-Channel Interpolation: Smoothly blend between up to 8 stages with high precision, using either bipolar CV or manual control.
   Scan Stage & Width Control: Dedicated controls for selecting active stages and defining the range of the interpolation window.
   Multiple Outputs: Individual outputs for odd stages, even stages, and a combined all stages output provide versatile routing options.

2. Integrated VCAs
   8 VCAs with CV Control: Each VCA has its own dedicated control voltage input, allowing for intricate amplitude shaping.
   Mix Outputs: Summed outputs for odd channels, even channels, and all channels, perfect for mixing duties or creating complex stereo effects.
   Subtractive Mixing: Individual VCA outputs are excluded from the mix outputs when patched, allowing for flexible routing and advanced signal processing.

3. Parallel and Flexible Signal Flow
   Parallel Input Routing: The 8 inputs feed both the scanner and VCAs simultaneously, making it easy to use the module in multiple roles at once.
   Switchable Sliders: 8 high-quality sliders can control input levels to the scanner, the VCAs, or both, adapting to your workflow needs.
   Creative Patching Examples:

Stereo Mixer:
Use 2 scanner channels and route their outputs through the odd and even mix outputs to create a dynamic stereo mix.
4-Channel Mixer:
Combine 4 inputs through the VCA sections and use the mix outputs to create a versatile sub-mixer for blending multiple signals.
VCA Control:
Independently use 2 or more VCAs for precise amplitude modulation of separate signals.
All the above options can be implemented simultaneously, making this module an exceptionally powerful tool for complex patches.

Expandable with Tobinski Harmonic Timing Generator (HTG):

This module seamlessly integrates with the Tobinski Harmonic Timing Generator (HTG) via an internal ribbon cable that goes to the switched (normalled) connections of the input jack sockets. The scanner inputs automatically link to the HTG outputs via sine shaping circuitry, enabling the two modules to function as a sinewave harmonic oscillator. This pairing unlocks harmonic interpolation and complex timbre creation, expanding your sonic palette.

The Tobinski 8-Channel Scanner & VCA is a must-have for modular enthusiasts seeking a high-performance, multi-functional module. Its combination of interpolation, amplitude control, and flexible routing makes it a cornerstone of any Eurorack system. Whether you're mixing, modulating, or crafting harmonic textures, this module delivers endless creative potential.
