The work necessary to develop these modules required many hours of work and many sleepless nights.
Sickozell plugin is and will always remain free, but if you find it useful, consider donating even just a coffee by following this payPal link.

Common modules behavior

• Triggers and gates threshold is +1v
• Every time-related knob set full anticlockwise and displaying 1ms on the tooltip is actually considered 0ms

adder8

8 Adder and subtractor

- DESCRIPTION

'adder8' is inspired by hardware precision adder modules. It adds, ignore or subtracts fixed voltages or CVS to outputs.

- INSTRUCTIONS

On the first row a fixed voltage set by VLT/ATNV knob is added, ignored or subtracted, depending on the -0+ switch, to the corresponding output.
If the output is not connected, the result voltage is summed to the next row, and with the same rules until a connected output is found.
If a CV input is connected, the VLT/ATNV knob acts as an attenuverter, then the CV voltage will be added or subtracted in the same previous way.
When an output is connected, the starting voltage of the next row is reset to 0v just like the first row does.
The MODE switches force the "-0+" switches to be as: "subtract/ignore", "subtract/ignore/add" or "ignore/add".

RIGHT-CLICK MENU

• Stop Adding on Out Cable (ticked by default): as mentioned above, the starting voltage is reset to 0v in the next row only when an out cable is detected. Unticking this option the voltage won't be reset
• Volt Knob Default: with this option the default initialization value of the VLT/ATNV knob can be changed to 0v, +1v or +10v.
  This unconventional feature lets the user to choose the default knob value depending on the main usage of Adder8:
  if it's used as a fixed pitch adder (without input CV connection) maybe it's useful to have the default value set to +1v, so if the knob position has been changed to detune, it can be quickly restored to add (or subtract) exactly 1 octave in pitch;
  otherwise, if the knob is used as attenuverter with a CV input connected, it can be set to 0v as usual or to +10v to quickly get the full CV voltage.
• Attenuator: this converts attenuverter knobs into attenuators when CV inputs are connected
• Reset All Knobs to Default: this resets all knobs value to selected default setting

bGates

8 buffered gates and triggers

- DESCRIPTION

'bGates' provides 8 buffered gates or triggers on 8 individual clock inputs.

- INSTRUCTIONS

Connect a clock source. Clock inputs are normalled to previous ones.

When ARM input is triggered (arm on) the GATE output will be set to high state on next clock detection and 1ms trigger will be given by TRG out.

Then, with another ARM triggering (arm off) GATE output will go low and another 1ms trigger will be given by TRG out.

If ARM is triggered again before clock detection it will abort arming (unarm).

Triggering RST input will immediately set the GATE out state to low and unarm it. If the GATE out state was HIGH a 1ms trigger is given by TRG out

Pressing RSTALL button or triggering RESETALL input will immediately set all the 8 GATE outs to low and unarm them.

Right-click Menu

• Initialize On Start: discards previous module state on VCV restart
• Disable Unarm: this disables unarm feature

blender

Polyphonic stereo crossfade mixer with double modulation

- DESCRIPTION

'blender' is a crossfade mixer of mono or stereo signals.
It can be used either with cv signals or audio sources.
Mix can be modulated by uni/bipolar signals.
Modulation can be further modulated by another signal.
Audio rate modulations are allowed.

- INSTRUCTIONS

Connect CVs or audio sources to IN1 and IN2, mono or stereo signals can be independently used. Polyphonic inputs are allowed and are left/right independent, but accordingly to number of channels of IN1 input.
PHASE switches invert the sign of input signals.
MIX knob sets the crossfade level of the inputs.
Inputs volume can be adjusted via two attenuators.
Master volume can be amplified up to 200%, a hard clip ±5v switch is present.
Output replicates input polyphony, but deticking in the right-click menu 'Polyphonic outs' option will mix channels into monophonic outs.

MOD section
Connecting MIX MOD CV input enables mix modulation. ATNV knob attenuverts CV input.
CV input range is usually unipolar 0-10v. RNG switch in 'bipolar' position adds +5v to CV input, so audio signals can be used for modulation.
Modulation is added to the MIX knob.

MOD2 section
MOD2 can be used to add modulation to the MOD attenuverter knob in MOD section, the rules are the same.

blender8

8 single crossfade mixers with modulation

- DESCRIPTION

'blender8' is a set of 8 crossfade mixers of two signals.
As the previous one it can be used either with cv signals or audio sources.
Mix can be modulated by uni/bipolar signals.
Audio rate modulations are allowed.

- INSTRUCTIONS

'blender8' provides 8 mono crossfade mixers and differs from 'blender' module in the following things.
Only the IN2 input signal can be phase inverted.
If a CV input is connected for modulation, CV sets the mix percentage and the MIX knob becomes the CV attenuverter.

bToggler / bToggler Compact

Buffered stereo signal toggle switch router, with VCA and ASR envelope generator, in regular and compact form factor

- DESCRIPTION

• Buffered Toggled VCA with builtin ASR envelope generator
• Buffered Toggled ASR envelope generator
• Buffer mute/unmute CVs or mono/stereo AUDIO signals according to an ASR envelope activated by Toggle Triggers

- INSTRUCTIONS

Connect a clock source.

When ARM input is triggered (arm on), the L+(R) inputs will start to be routed to L+(R) outputs on next clock detection (according to ASR envelope values) and GATE output will provide a high state.

Then, with another ARM triggering (arm off) the routing will stop on next clock detection and GATE output will go low.

If ARM is triggered again before clock detection it will abort arming (unarm).

Attack, Sustain and Release knobs set the envelope of the routed signals.

A, S, R CVinputs are added to respective knob values, bToggler module has attenuverters.

If L or (R) inputs are not connected, relative outputs will provide just the envelope, so a mono signal can be connected to L input to route it to L output and nothing connected to (R) input to have the envelope on (R) output.

A trigger on RESET input will reset the toggle state.

Polyphony on L/(R) inputs is replicated on outs.

Right-click Menu

• Initialize On Start: discards previous module state on VCV restart
• Disable Unarm: this disables unarm feature
• Trigger on Gate Out: this option substitutes Gate Output with a 1ms trigger whenever a clock is detected when armed

bToggler8

8 buffered toggle switch signal router

- DESCRIPTION

'bToggler8' can be used to mute/unmute up to 8 CVs or AUDIO signals, in sync to a tempo cl
