MRG Synthesizer - FOLD
and the internal opamps of the wavefolding section have been changed from the original to work at 5V instead of 6V. Furthermore, the input signal is
internally attenuated to 1V instead of .7V. All of this required a complete recalculation of all parameters of the wavefolding circuit.
As the original, MRG FOLD has the possibility of mixing the input signal with the folded one (dry/wet).
A unique feature of the MRG FOLD is that it allows to substitute in the mixing the input signal with an external one.
On top of this, the FOLD has an overdrive stage, right after the wet/dry mixing, that contributes to the personality of the module.

MRG Synthesizers (mrgsynth) are handmade modules designed by Gianluca Guida in Cambridge, UK.
These modules are the result of my growing interest in music synthesis. MRG modules implement high quality classical building blocks of subtractive analog synthesis, with a focus on simplicity and versatility.
I approach synthesizers as technical instruments to explore that marvellous connection between mathematics and brain that we call music. Being technical instruments, MRG modules are designed to be conceptually simple (i.e., do one thing well), and their panels are meant to be concise, and somewhat dry and rational.
MRG's most common modules are part of the MRG 4HP series, a series of small, narrow but powerful and elegant modules.
