Norand Morphos Complex VCO

MORPHOSis the first complex VCO with3D morphingtouch strips,three modulation typesand the most stableThrough Zero FMyet developed.

3DMORPHING

3D Morphing creates entirely new soundscapes bymorphing between multiple user presets,in three diffe

• Each oscillator has a touch sensitive strip of 4 presets
  MORPHOS’ preset strips are groups of fourspecially developed FSR sensorsthat can precisely detect vertical, horizontal and pressure information from the pressure distribution of your finger.

• You can morph adjacent presets with your finger
  That is traditionalsingle dimmension morphing, between 2 presets.

• There are 3 layers – X, Y and Z – of 4 presets each.
  Each preset group is calleda layer.

• Enter 3D Morphing mode to morph between layers
  Slide verticallyto morph between theX presetyou’re touching and the relatedY preset.

• Enter 3D Morphing mode to morph between layers
  The touch strip alsodetects pressureto morph between theX presetyou’re touching and the relatedZ preset.

• You have 48 user presets to morph between.
  Distributed across4 bankscontaining 3 layers of 4 presets each.

• Automate and sequence your morphing with CV
  There are3 dedicated CVinputs for the X, Y and Z direction.

Everything You Need Inside The Box

CONTEXTUALMODULATION

Using NorandsContextual Modulation technology, it is possible to modulateevery parameteron MORPHOS. The module also provides 3 Modulation Modes –Attenuverter, ModulatorandPing Envelope– allowing you to modulate timbre and create drum sounds.

• Attenuverter Mode
  In the classic attenuverter mode, the CV input value is multiplied by the amount knob, and the result modulates the parameter. The rest position of the amount knob is dead center:, in this position no CV modulation is applied;, going right will increase the modulation by a positive amount;, while going left createsby a negative amount (i.e a reversed version of your input signal).
• Special V/oct functions
  On the V/Oct inputs, the attenuverter mode acts differently, it has 5 mode selected with the amount knob. At the center position, the input is the classic 1V/Oct. On the left, you get a 0.5V/Oct and 0.25V/Oct mode, and on the right, 2V/Oct
• Modulator Mode
  In the modulator mode, the internal modulation oscillator is enabled on the selected parameter. Adjust rate and amount, and waveform to your taste, and toggle between low frequency and high frequency modulation with the type switch. You can use this mode with or without CV, if a CV
• Ping Envelope Mode
  In this mode, the module expect a trig envelope at its input. When triggered, it’ll send a ping envelope to the parameter. Adjust the decay with the rate knob, the amount controls the amplification.Get powerful drum timbre in an instant!

Versatile, Extremely Stable

TZFM ANALOGOSCILLATORS

MORPHOS lets you push sonic limits with control, helping get the most from your modular setup. The two all-analogue, digitally controlled Oscillators provide very pure harmonics, 4 wave types and extremely stable TZFM (Through Zero Frequency Modulation).

Extremely stable Through Zero Frequency Modulation

Getting excellent pitch tracking with analog TZFM is quite difficult to achieve. Our custom oscillator design taken from Mono, was refined for Morphos. Thanks to its active calibration system, it tracks over 10 octaves, even at high TZFM ratio.
