The ‘Pip Slope’ (mark II) is a compact envelope and function generator. It supports both Attack/Decay and Attack/Sustain/Decay type envelopes with both direct and voltage control of Attack and Decay times. Envelope shapes can be morphed between exponential, linear and logarithmic type slopes. Envelopes can be made to loop, repeating infinitely or decreasing with time or amplitude for echo and bouncing ball type effects. An ‘End of Cycle’ trigger output further extends the envelopes functionality for both clocking and burst type effects.
The mark II Pip Slope adds a number of new features and improvements over the original Pip Slope whilst remaining the same size. Improvements include increased output resolution, control of fast envelopes, shape control, 5 or 8v maximum envelope level, various loop modes and an additional trigger output.

![POWELL - Busy Visits.. EP001
ALM Busy Circuits presents BUSY VISITS.. a brand new video series where we delve into the creative spaces and creative practises of some of our favourite artists.
For the first episode, we visit Powell.
Powell is an artist and musician living and working in London. He is also the founder of Diagonal Records, an imprint created in 2011 that has since grown to incorporate over 60 physical and digital releases, many of them made iconic by Guy Featherstone’s visual direction for the label. He released a volley of deviant dance-oriented music on XL Recordings, as well as a collaboration in 2018 with Turner Prize-winning artist and photographer Wolfgang Tillmans. In 2020 he launched A Folder with visual artist Marte Eknæs and Swiss filmmaker Michael Amstad; AF is a music, film and image platform that can be [mis]understood as a release or work that never ends. In late 2021 he will release Piano Music 1-7 on Editions Mego. VIVA PITA.
