QUAID MEGASLOPE
The ‘Quaid Megaslope’ is a five stage function generator or modulator which operates in one of 3 modes; a multistage ‘CZ’ or ‘Juno’ style complex envelope, a super 
flexible LFO and a step sequencer with per step programmable slew or slides. Each mode produces a varying output voltage moving from point to point across 
a set number of chained together stages. Each stage features a destination level, an overall rate or time to reach its destination level and a variable slope for 
the output path to take. As well as direct control, every stage features voltage control of both level and rate.  There are both unipolar and bipolar voltage outputs 
together with triggers emitted for the end of each stage and the end of a full cycle.
The Quaid Megaslope is designed to be fun, flexible and intuative to use. 
TIME CONTROLS
Sets the time that the stage will take to 
reach the set destination level.  Control  
goes clockwise from approx 1-2ms to 
100ms at 12 o’clock, to 3sec at 9 o’clock to 
approx 3 minutes at 5 o’clock.
SLOPE CONTROLS
Varys the slope type from log to lin to exp.
LEVEL CONTROLS
Level control sets the final output voltage 
for a stage. 
‘SET’ SUSTAIN/LOOP BUTTON
 Sets the stage for sustain in envelope 
mode or the loop point in step and loop 
mode. The selected stage is indicated by 
the row of green LEDs above. 
In Env mode, holding this button for 1 
second will add prior stages to a ‘looping’ 
sustain mode.  
MODE BUTTON
Switches the current operating mode of the 
Megaslope from Envelope to Looping (LFO) 
to Step sequencer mode. 
CONTROL VOLTAGE INPUTS
Per stage voltage control of level and time. 
Expects 0-5V. Values set by controls are 
added to this input value. 
TRIGGER INPUTS
Dependent on mode these two inputs 
perform the following:
Env :  ‘Trig’ triggers a single cycle of all 5 
stages. Gate will also trigger but will sus-
tain (i.e hold) the envelope at the selected 
stage level whilst the gate is high before 
completing full 5 stages. If the gate goes 
low before the sustain stage the envelope 
will end immediately. A retriggered envelope 
(that hasn’t finished a full cycle) will start 
from its current level as to avoid clicks. 
Loop : Both trig and gate inputs reset the 
cycle to the beginning of the first stage. This 
mode automatically cycles. 
Step : ‘Trig’ input steps the sequencer to the 
next stage. Gate becomes a reset restarting 
the sequence from the first stage. 
OPERATION MODE OVERVIEW
There are 3 functioning modes;
‘Env’elope : In response to a trigger or gate 
the megaslope will output a classic 5 stage 
envelope with the set rate, slope and end 
level for each stage,
Loop : The Megaslope will automatically 
cycle across the number of set stages 
moving between levels at the requested 
rate. The final stage will move to the set 
level of the initial one. 
Step : In response to a trigger signal the 
Megaslope will step to the next stage level 
(cycling back to the intial stage when the 
set number of stages is reached). With time 
set greater than zero (ie not full CCW) the 
level will not change instantly allowing for 
variable slew like or ‘slide’ effects. 
OUTPUTS
+/-Out outputs an approx -5v to 5v bipolar 
signal. When not active this will sit at 
approx -5v
+Out Main unipolar output between approx 
0-8v 
EOS - ‘End of stage’ outputs a trigger when 
a stage is completed.
EOC - ‘End of cycle’ outs a trigger when a full 
cycle is completed

Module Installation
With your modular synth powered off 
connect the 10 pin end of the supplied 
standard eurorack power connector cable 
to the 10 pin power connector on the rear 
of the module. 
The red stripe on the cable should be 
orientated to match the text ‘RED’ marked 
on the rear of the module near the power 
connector (this is -12V). Connect the other 
16 pin end of the cable to your eurorack bus 
board (Refer to your bus board documenta-
tion for the correct orientation).
You are now safe to power up your modular 
synth. If the module fails to power up check 
you have the power cable correctly orien-
tated and have carefully read this manual. 
All ALM modules feature reverse power 
protection.
Firmware Upgrades
The Quaid Megaslope firmware is user 
updateable via the usb connector on the 
side of the module. 
Please visit busycircuits.com/alm020 for 
the latest firmware and details on how to 
perform the upgrade .
TIPS AND TRICKS
Watch out for clicky envelopes. Stages can 
be very quick, alway make sure the final 
stage has a bit of a slope as to avoid clicks. 
Use with Pamelas New Workout flexible 
triggering patterns to cleverly use the 5 
stages across 16 steps in sequencer mode. 
For example a 16 step  euclidean pattern 
with 5 triggers or patch a /4 output into the 
gate reset. Use a different pattern for the 
step vs the vca envelope trigger. 
Use an initial stage with level of 0 and set 
time for delayed envelopes.
