• PANLIN is based on Ciat-Lonbarde's take on the Benjolin.
• It's sold individually and as part of UNCONVENTIONAL BUNDLE.

PANLIN consists of two identical separated parts. So each part contains two oscillators, a resonant lowpass filter, and Peter Blasser's take on the infamous Rungler circuit. Clocked by one oscillator, the Rungler is a shift register feeding upon not only its own output, but also listening to the output of the other oscillator to further influence its data with feedback chaos. As the Rungler's CV output is then fed into the oscillators and filter, a range of hefty drones and chaotic noise is possible. Of course, the Ciat-Lonbarde take on this classic experimental instrument is filled with its own mysteries. Toggle button in the middle to freeze the shift register.

Beginning at the top left of PANLIN and rotating clockwise, the four outer knobs correspond to the base settings of the non-Rungler sections: oscillator pitch A, oscillator pitch B, filter cutoff, and filter resonance. Their associated blue banana jacks are CV inputs, allowing for patched modulations from the PANLIN itself or external sources. The left oscillator features a slightly lower frequency range, but both offer square wave outputs on their red jacks, and triangle waveforms on their orange jacks. The grey jack produces the Rungler CV output, while the white produces the post-filter signal and of course, black outputs -5.0V useful to be inserted in the blue jacks to somehow attenuate inside wild voltage movement.

In the middle of PANLIN are four knobs that route the Rungler and other CV signals across the instrument, and it's here that the nuance of its chaotic nature is most clear. The top three knobs allow the Rungler to influence the left and right oscillators as well as the filter cutoff, while the bottom is filter cutoff modulation from the left oscillator. It's a bit of a stretch to call the PANLIN tame even when these controls are all the way down, but begin to turn any combination of them up and you'll be treated to an assortment of bleeps and bloops, chaotic hisses, or ominous gurgles.

Stereo white jack outputs at the top and stereo green jacks inputs at the bottom of each part.
