Ring vs. Balanced Modulation

2009-01-03 by Fred Weed

Many use the terms "Ring modulation" and "Balanced modulation" to mean the
same thing - the two input signals (or one input and one reference signal,
typically a sine wave) are multiplied in the time domain to produce one
output.  This output contains all the sums and differences (in the frequency
domain) of the two inputs.

The voltage control outputs on the upper right of the Balanced Modulator
section will provide a mixture of the input signal and the ring modulated
signal.  The mix amount will be affected by the 'balanced' knob, the control
voltage at the 'timbre' CV input, and the typical center-detent +/- amount
knob below the timbre CV input.
