Invert Offset Utility Control CV and Audio with Precision in a Slimline 2HP Design

IOU is a highly flexible DC-coupled signal processor, suitable for both CV and audio inputs. It features an attenuverter for precise signal scaling and inversion, alongside a unipolar DC offset slider with LED indicator. The DC offset slider provides up to +5V or +10V of precise offset control depending on the gain setting. A unique feature, resulting from a request by DivKid, is the ability to apply the offset either Pre or Post-attenuverter. When set to Pre-attenuverter, IOU allows for detailed, granular offsets across the entire slider range, offering fine-tuned control.

IOU includes a selectable output gain setting, allowing a choice between 1x and 2x. This feature is useful for amplifying low level input signals or doubling the DC offset control range up to +10V with the 2x setting.

The outputs are symmetrical, providing equal and opposite signals. This dual-output setup is useful for symmetrical voltage control, facilitating techniques such as sidechain compression (ducking) and crossfading when used in conjunction with VCAs.

IOU excels in CV signal scaling, inversion, and voltage offset, and is equally skilled at processing audio signals for attenuation, gain control, inversion, and clipping. Its features enable precise manipulation of signals for controlling other modules. This functionality enriches any Eurorack setup, facilitating more complex and creative patching possibilities.

IOU is an indispensable tool, crafted to enhance the functional range and versatility of your modular system.
