Arcane Knowledge VCA / Overdrive - User’s Manual for Eurorack

Hello and thank you for using the Arcane Knowledge VCA / Overdrive for Eurorack modular. We hope you

will find it to be a fun and interesting sounding vintage-style processor for your audio signals!

The Arcane Knowledge marries two classic circuits to create what we see as a “utility flavor” module. First

up is a discrete transistor core VCA stage similar to those found in very early modular synths: not the

cleanest or most precise amplifier, but rather full of harmonic richness and color to bring a little kick to

those squeaky clean waveforms.

This VCA may be used on its own or through the switchable Drive circuit, which slaps a high-gain Tube

Screamer-style soft clipping overdrive stage on the audio signal. Unlike the Tube Screamer, however, the

Arcane Knowledge’s drive stage uses different diodes in the forward and reverse position, creating

asymmetric clipping with more emphasis of even order harmonics. Using the rear trimmer, this stage can

be configured to give the VCA output signal anything from a tasty boost to fully crunched sonic mayhem.

For those looking to liven up their sound, sometimes the old ways are best. Enlighten yourself: it’s the

Arcane Knowledge!

Technical Specifications:

Width: 10 hp (Intellijel 1U format)

Depth: 35 mm

Peak Current Draw: 15 mA @ +12V, 15mA @ -12V

1. Installing the Arcane Knowledge

The Arcane Knowledge uses a standard 10-pin Eurorack power header which is mounted on the back of

the module. When connecting the power cable, make sure that the -12V rail from your case’s power

supply aligns with that of the module. The stripe on the bottom of the power header and the “-12V” label

indicate the location of this rail on the module. The Ancient Scroll has reverse diode protection so

plugging it in backwards will probably not destroy the module or case; however, we strongly recommend

taking the proper precautions to plug it in correctly before powering up your case.

The 1U format module will fit in any 1U case. Once your power ribbon cable is connectedIntellijel-format

to the rear of the module, place it in the case and mount it using either two diagonal rack screws or

screws in each of the four corner holes.

2. Theory of Operation

The Arcane Knowledge is an audio VCA with Overdrive which is designed to sound nice and impart

subtle (or not subtle) distortions (meaning, differences from the original input waveform) which the ear

may perceive as more compelling than a totally “clean” waveform, and which will of course provide more

material to be filtered, EQ’ed, etc if desired, which we find to be an essential ingredient when recreating

the sound of classic analog synthesizers, which are full of life and variation in the sound. Keen listeners or

oscilloscope users will notice a slight noise floor from the transistors (especially with the Drive mode

engaged) but we believe the interesting sound these circuits provide outweighs a little noise.

With this module, we truly stand on the shoulders of giants. The VCA section is similar to Yusynth’s

“ ,” a great module in its own right. There is also a very thorough explanation of the circuit in

Simple VCA

the Erica Synths EDU VCA . The Tube Screamer is one of the most famous fuzz/overdrive effectsManual

ever made, and a great explanation of the whole circuit is offered .here
