Create massive animated folding sounds with the Tiptop Audio Fold Processor, a voltage controlled wave multiplier and sub-octave generator. Based on a classic diode design, the Fold Processor adds odd harmonics by folding the incoming signal and outputs to its own output.
There are manual and CV controls over the Fold and Inject parameters, allowing you to use other modules to animate the sound. The subdivide generator squares the fold output, generating four more sounds spaced one octave apart, each with its own gain knob and mixed to a dedicated output. The Fold Processor ships with a ribbon power cable.
At a Glance
The Fold Processor is a voltage-controlled wave multiplier and sub-octave generator. The circuit is based on a classic diode design that adds odd harmonics by folding the incoming signal, followed by subdivided square waves.
Wave Folder
- Creates new waveforms from standard sine, triangle, sawtooth, and square waves
- Includes a CV input with an attenuator, making it very easy to create beautifully animated folding sounds
- Adjustable voltage-controlled Inject alters the bias point creating an even wider palette of sounds
Subdivide Generator
- Squares the fold output, generating 4 more sounds spaced one octave apart, each with its own gain knob and mixed to the Subdivide output jack
- Mixing the four can create anything from discordant square-wave swarms to sweet harmonic oscillator stacks
- Go from a stable square version of the folded wave to freaky PLL-like glitched slides
