Fenix Specifications
Controls for CV attenuation are marked 'CV2'. There are two types:
0/max regular control and -/0/+ This control has zero in the middle position, Clockwise position attenuates the CV, Anti-clockwise inverts and attenuates the CV.
Refer to front panel picture to see which ones are used for which modules.
