Cascadia is semi-modular, which means that many functions are interconnected (normalized), for which otherwise a cable would have to be patched. With 101 patch jacks designed as inputs or outputs, you have absolute freedom to rebuild your signal path at least partially, add or replace functions, and integrate Eurorack modules or other semi-modular synthesizers at will respectively create interactions. Missing the VCO B at the top of the mixer? Just patch the desired waveform eg. into In2 and make the connection - done. The manufacturer has made a big hit, because Cascadia combines the best of West Coast and East Coast synthesis. This refers to technical procedures and approaches of the very first modular systems by Moog and Buchla, which still have their justification today and are built into current instruments and modules. A sound lab the size of a backpack Almost no function is available more than once; main functions such as the oscillators, envelopes and VCAs do exist twice, but in different configurations. This provides even more flexibility and exponentially increases the musical potential. Oscillator A masters among other things PWM, Thru-Zero FM as well as Hard- and Softsync. In addition, a sub-oscillator with -1/-2 octave spacing follows the frequency of VCO A. The waveforms of the first tone generator are combined in the mixer and also output. The levels of the ring modulator, the noise generator and the sub oscillator are also available in the mixer. The Noise generator provides white and pink noise and some other noise colors. If you want to have other sound sources like eg. the function generator in the audio section or Sample & Hold with two square waveforms at the inputs for analogue Bitcrush you will find two inputs for this in the mixer. The second oscillator B is simpler, it is intended as a modulation oscillator for VCO A, can work as a VC-LFO and is generally freely patchable. The mixer is followed by the 24dB mutimode filter with eight different characteristics covering lowpass, bandpass, highpass, notch and even phaser. For modulating the filter there are four CV inputs with attenuators, which should be enough in most cases. Parallel to the filter a...
