Rampage is Befaco’s approach to an old invention: the Serge/Buchla ramp generator.

We took the idea of a “patch programmable” function generator/processor, put two units in the same module and expanded them with new functions and ways to combine them: Slope detectors, analogue logic functions and evolved outputs.

FEATURES

• Built around two voltage controlled Integrators aka Lag Processors.
• Convert square signals into ramp waveforms
• Achieve “Portamento” or “Glide” effect when applied to pitch CV signals.
• Basic lowpass filtering

SPECS

• Current needs: +12V: 110mA, -12V: 90mA
• Width: 18 HP
• Depth: 30 mm (including power connector)
• Aluminium, heat-treated front panel
• Designed, kits prepared and completed modules assembled in Barcelona

RAMPAGE APPLICATIONS
-Voltage controlled Attack Decay envelope.

-Attack Sustain Release Envelope .

-More complex ADSR Style Envelope.

-Dual VCO. With Square, PWM, Saw, Log, Exp and Triangle shapes. Hard and soft sync.

-Gated VCO

-VCO + Analog AND Gate (As ADTimbral VCA)

-Dual Low Pass Filter

-Dual Low pass Filter with VCO soft sync.

-Low Pass Filter + AD Envelope

-Dual “syncable” voltage controlled LFO with Square, PWM, Saw and Triangle shapes)

-Complex LFO . Function combination.

-CV controlled and “Ping-Pong” LFO.

-Dual Slope detector. Distinguishes when and incoming signal (CV or audio) is rising or falling, and generates gates in concordance.

-Comparator. Send a gate when B IN is bigger than A IN

-Polyrythmic gate generator. With both channels synced between each other, it generates several “complex rhythm” gates.

-Voltage controlled Slew limiter with independent attack and decay control and continuous variable shape between Log, linear and expo

-Peak Voltage follower. Max Out follow the maximum Level of the two inputs.

-Minimum Voltage Follower. Min Out follow the minimum level of the two inputs

-Envelope follower with adjustable response for rising ans falling flanks.

-Voltage controlled Trigger Delay .

-Burst Generator.
