ORNAMENT-8 is an organismic sequencer, or in a broader sense, a synthesizer of behaviour. A unique feature of ORNAMENT is its fully horizontal modular structure that consists of eight equal and independent cells which are special delay lines. It’s in fact an analog computer with a temporal dimension, the behaviour of which is determined by patching and adjusting the temporal properties of each cell involved in the generation of the behaviour.
- New sequencer design without a defined tempo or measure and with freely configurable playback structure
- The Ornament-8 provides eight independent cells that are activated/deactivated with impulses and held for an adjustable time
- A sequence is generated by creatively daisy-chaining cells using patch cables
- Available for each cell are: Inputs and outputs for CV and triggers, trigger outputs for Lyra-8 and Pulsar-23, bypassing or doubling a cell’s duration, phase switch, adjustable cell duration, and buttons for cell activation/deactivation
- Four freely assignable gate-to-trigger signal converters
- Four adapters from 3.5 mm mini-jack to metal pins
- 12 V DC power output for external devices
- Voltage range: 0 – 10 V
- Cell duration: 50 ms – 5 mins
- Dimensions (W x D x H) : 266 x 255 x 54 mm
- Weight : 1.4 kg
- Includes 12 V DC power supply, power cable for external devices, and patch cables (14 x 30 cm and 12 x 65 cm) with crocodile clips
