Korg PS 3200 - 8. Sample & Hold (S/H)

The S/H converts a input voltage into a stepped output voltage.
Every time it is triggered, it samples a new input voltage and spits out the old voltage.
This module is made up of a switch, a pot & 4 jacks.

The switch is used to sync the sample rate with the input signal.
If the input signal is cyclic, this switch will sync the sample rate with the input signal.
This will result in the stepped output repeating itself in regular intervals.
To get clocked random outputs, feed in noise (which is of course non-cyclic) .
To get un-clocked random outputs, feed in noise & turn Sync to off.

The Clock Frequency pot is a manual frequency adjustment device.

The Clock out is the signal from the S/H clock generator.
This is a S-trigger.

The S/H out converts input voltage signal to a stepped output voltage.

The two lower jacks allow you to input external trigger & sampling voltages.
The trigger needs to be a S-trigger (5v ?)
The Sample voltage can range between -5V & +5V.

 Above, is an example of a random note generator.
