Doepfer A-116

Waveform Processor

The A-116 module provides voltage-controlled, dynamic waveform modification of audio signals. It can produce new waveforms from the standard, basic forms; with such changes also having the option of being modulated.

The signal first of all goes through an input amplifier with a gain range from 0 up to 2, i.e. the signal can be both attenuated and amplified up to a factor of 2. After the input amplifier, the signal goes through two parallel processors.

Signal processing paths: clipping and an asymmetrical amplifier. Subsequently, the modified signals are then added and fed to the output. The parameters of the clipping level and symmetry can be set manually as well as modulated by control voltages, which allows for very complex and dynamic waveform changes.

Width: 8 HP / 40.3 mm
Depth: 40 mm (measured from the rear side of the front panel)
Power requirement: +20 mA (+ 12V) / -20 mA (-12V)

A nice addition

Easy to use and well fitted into my eurorack modular setup. Good performance and manyfacturing quality. A good addition into my sound processing pipeline.

A-116 module

Anonymous 19.01.2017

Bought this as my first waveform processing module for my very minimalist (read a beginner) modular synth. Used with the A-110 VCO a mixer for the sine & tri waves into the Wasp filter the amount of sound variation is amazing - everything from growling to almost ring modulation. Highly recommended especially at the price.

Waveform Processor ist meiner Meinung nach total unterbewertet

Schrom 04.08.2019

Der Waveform Processor ist meiner Meinung nach total unterbewertet:
Erstmal kann man damit Audio-Signale, etwa Drum Sounds u.Ä., sehr gut saturieren ohne dass es wirklich distorted klingt, was sound-technisch einfach sehr wertvoll. Als Techno-Freak begrüsse ich es total wie man damit die Attack der Bassdrum sehr konkret betonen, steuern kann (Das kann kein Paramter auf der DrumMachine).
Desweiteren (und das ist die eigentliche Funktion) kann man Synth Sounds total verformen: OSC1 dadurch, einer der beiden Parameter nach Geschmack einstellen, den anderen Parameter mit OSC2 ansteuern. Der Sound wird total geil verformt wobei das Resultat meistens nicht zu schräg und sehr brauchbar ist. Man muss aber ein wenig mit den Parametern und den Soundquellen rumprobieren. Oft klingt es danach nicht mehr nur nach einem OSC sondern nach viel mehr. Hammer!
Ich glaube das Gerät ist so wenig beliebt weil die Meisten den Saturations-Vorteil unterbewerten und nie wirklich probiert haben etwas damit zu erzielen. Dabei steht die oben beschriebene Vorgehensweise genau so im Manual.
Darüber hinaus kann das Modul auch benutzt werden um SteuerSignale wie LFOs konkret zu manipulieren.

Der A-116 Waveform Processor erlaubt eine enorme Erweiterung der VCOs, die durch CV-Steuerungen für Clipping und Symmetrie auch dynamisch spielbar sind. Die klangliche Ausbeute ist beträchtlich; ich habe in der kurzen Zeit nur an der Oberfläche gekratzt. Dieses Modul hat es in sich...
