ATTENUVERTER

An attenuator is a key component in a modular synthesis system that offers a combination of attenuation and phase inversion of the signal. Its main function is to adjust the amplitude of the incoming signal, allowing artists to control the amount of signal.

However, unlike a normal attenuator, the ATTENUVERTER also offers the ability to invert the phase of a signal, as well to modify it's amplitude, adding an additional dimension to the modulation process. 

Key Features:

• Attenuation: The module allows for the reduction of the input signal's amplitude. This function is useful for controlling the output signal level.

• Signal Inversion: The attenuverter enables the user to invert the signal's polarity . This means that, in addition to decreasing the amplitude, a reversed polarity of the output signal can be achieved.

Typical Applications:

• Level Controls: the module can be used to adjust the level of signals.

• Modulation Inversion: Applied to modulation signals, the attenuverter can invert the polarity of the controlled parameter's variation.

• Audio Processing: Employed to create inversion and amplitude variation effects in audio signals.

In summary, the attenuverter is a flexible and powerful tool, providing dynamic and creative control over the manipulation of audio and control signals.
