The Harvestman – Double Andore
All sections covered begin from the top of the module and works itself down and focuses only on one side of the dual system. This is a very complex module and this is only meant as a brief introduction. The overall functionality of the Double Andore is incredible in its sheer versatility and hopefully this video shows the potential. An Eventide Space was used at the end of the signal chain.
Double Andore by Harvestman
A dual envelope generator with VCA, cross modulation, gate outputs and more!
Knobs
Attack – Time it takes to open the envelope
Decay – Time it takes to close the envelope
CV – Assignable to Attack, Decay or Shape
Curve Selection – Selects waveform/ curve
Waveforms in bank A:
0: Linear
1: Expo
2: Log
3: Double expo
4: Double log
5: Sine
6-E: Fun stuff
F: Noise
CTL – Attenuation for the VCA Voltage input. The env output voltage is normalled to this jack and pot.
Output Control – Overall output volume
Buttons
CV Select – Selects where CV is being sent to. Destinations include: attack, decay, or shape
Behavior Select – AD – Attack Decay (requires trigger), AHD – Attack Sustain Decay (Holds envelope at max value when gate is held at trigger jack), LFO – Cycles through envelope without trigger. All three modes can retrigger when a new trigger/gate is sent to the Trigger jack.
Log/Exp Select – Chooses between Logarithmic or Exponential volume curves. Distortion sounds great
Alternate Button Functions
Hold CV Select to put a decimal point into the side’s number display. The alternate bank of envelopes is now on the decimal point side
Hold Behavior select to invert LEDs. Now the left digit is the Attack curve and the right digit is the decay curve, effective for the side with inverted LEDs
Hold the LOG/ EXP Select to access Cross Modulation from the opposite VCA Channel
Inputs
Trigger Input – Activates Envelope with a present signal
Mirror Input – Inverts position of Envelope within voltage range
Freeze Input – Holds Envelope at current position when signal is present
CV Input – Sends CV to attack, decay, or shape by using CV Select button. Negative Voltages are allowed at this input and will subtract from the knob values.
Outputs
ENV – Control voltage envelope
EOD – Gate launches at the End of Decay
EOA – Gate launches at the End of Attack
Mixers
Top – Diode and Circuit (highest voltage wins) with balance control.
Bottom – Mix of VCA outputs
