The EG is a slightly optimised ADSR envelope generator. Optimised because it has only 3 controls. With sustain on, it outputs an ASR (attack/sustain/release) envelope, but when the sustain is set to a minimum, it becomes an AD (attack/decay) envelope generator that ignores gate length; Release and Decay are controlled by the same knob. A looping function and an inverted output make the module more versatile for complex patches.
Erica Synths and Moritz Klein have developed a series of educational DIY kits under the brand name mki x es.EDU with one specific goal in mind: to teach people with little-to-no prior experience how to design analog synthesizer circuits from scratch.
What you’ll find in the box is not simply meant to be soldered together and then disappear in your rack. Instead, they take you through the circuit design process step by step, explaining every choice they’ve made and how it impacts the finished module.
