They were complaining that many-function-in-one modules were confusing to use and were trying to accomplish too much, and therefore not really good any single function. Oddly, the stoic folks at Pittsburgh Modular agreed with him (for once) and took this as a challenge. A few days later they came back with what would be the panel design for this module.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eFunction Junction combines three classic analog modulation sources, ADSR envelope, function generator, and LFO. All are fed into an attenuverting mixer to create a complex modulation junction that can be used as 4 independent sections or in conjunction with each other.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe magic of the module is the ease you can flow from using its functions for basic everyday tasks to creating hyper-complex modulation. The sheer breadth of what you can do and the ease of doing it are pretty amazing (if we don’t say so ourselves).\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eNormally we’re not manual readers, but in this case we highly recommend reading the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.cre8audio.com\/s\/Function-Junction-Manual.pdf\"\u003emanual\u003c\/a\u003e to get a feel for the possibilities.
