Expert Sleepers Disting

The Disting is a 16-in-1 multifunction module, offering a variety of CV and audio processes, including a selection of oscillators (LFOs/VCOs). All algorithms have two high-precision inputs and outputs, and a third control input, exposed on a front panel knob and a CV input.

The included algorithms are:

Group 1

Group 2

Group 3

Group 4

1

Precision Adder 

with integer voltage offsets

Linear/Exponential Converter

Sample and Hold 

with noise source and 

adjustable slew rate

LFO 

with through zero frequency control 

and waveshaping

2

Four Quadrant Multiplier 

with integer multiply/divide

Quantizer 

with selectable scales

Slew Rate Limiter 

with linear and 

exponential slew

Clockable LFO 

with multiply/divide 

and waveshaping

3

Full-wave Rectifier

Comparator 

with adjustable hysteresis

Pitch and Envelope Tracker

VCO with linear FM 

sine and saw outputs

4

Minimum/maximum

Dual Waveshaper 

wavefolder and 

triangle-to-sine shaper

Clockable Delay/Echo

VCO with waveshaping 

saw/triangle 

and pulse outputs

Specifications

The Disting's specifications are as follows:

  • Panel width: 4HP

  • Module depth: 53mm

  • X & Y inputs, A & B outputs

    • Sample rate: 78.125kHz
    • ADC: 24 bit, THD+N -93dB, Dynamic range 99dB, SNR 99dB
    • DAC: 24 bit, THD+N -94dB, Dynamic range 105dB, SNR 104dB
  • Z input sample rate: 10kHz approx

  • CPU: Microchip PIC32MX at up to 40MHz

  • Current draw: 111mA on the +12V rail, 37mA on the -12V rail (148mA total)

The front panel is drilled for both Doepfer and Analogue Systems mounting holes (using a 'slot' rather than a single round hole). The power connector is a Doepfer standard 10 way IDC, with -12V furthest from the top of the board.

Hackable

The Disting is based around a PIC microcontroller, with a programming/debug header available on the board. Using Microchip's free development tools a user can easily hack the Disting to perform their own functions.

It is our intention to provide an open source code framework into which developers can slot their own algorithms.
