3
Warning
To reduce the risk of fire or electric shock, do not expose the unit to dripping or
splashing of any kind of liquid and make sure that there are no objects containing
liquids, such as vases or glasses, placed on it.
Do not install in limited spaces.
Positioning
Depending on the material and temperature of the surface you place the unit on,
the rubber feet may discolor or stain the surface.
Installation
Stand Alone
Turn off all peripherals before making any connections.
After making all the connections, be sure to turn on the audio sources plugged in
first, then The GodFather and then all the rest of the equipment (mixers,
amplifiers, speakers).
Failure to observe this order could cause malfunction or failure.
There is no power switch on your The Godfather. Once connected to the power
supply, the unit is On.
Be sure to use only the AC adapter supplied with the unit.
Eurorack
USING The GodFather AS A EURORACK MODULE
The GodFather can be removed from its case and installed into a Eurorack
system as a 60HP module.
Before doing this, it is important to note that The GodFather draws a maximum of
900mA from a +12V rail due to the many LEDs available on the panel. It does not
use the -12V rail at all. Make sure there is enough headroom on the +12V rail in
your system to power the Godfather.
It is possible to exclude the LED section to absorb less current by following the
instructions below.
NOTE: You will need to know the current rating of the system's +12VDC rail and
the current draw of the +12VDC rail from all modules in the combined system.
4
The sum of all current draw at +12VDC should never exceed the power supply
rating.
Note that it is good practice to leave some headroom to reduce stress on the
power supply.
Enjoy Lab accepts NO responsibility or liability for improperly installed modules.
TO INSTALL The GodFather IN A EURORACK SYSTEM
1.Disconnect external power from the unit.
2. Remove the eight black M3 screws on the front panel and keep them
somewhere safe. You will need them again.
3. Slowly lift the panel from the case, so that you can see the two cables going to
the front panel module.
4. Disconnect the power cable from the front panel and the USB cable from the
power board. The module is now free from its enclosure.
5. Look at the back of your The GodFather module. There is a 16-pin power
header on the back of the PCB that accepts a 16-pin Eurorack power ribbon
cable (not included).
6. Connect PIN-1 (-12V) of the power ribbon cable to PIN-1 of the GodFather
Eurorack power header. The darkened wire (typically red) on the ribbon cable
indicates the PIN-1 (-12V) side of the cable.
make sure that the red line on the
cable should be placed matching the
−12V side on your power board:
please double check with your power
board supplier that the marked side is
the −12V.
Enjoy Lab may not be held responsible in any way for probems or damage to persons or property or to the device itself, if the
device is not connected as indicated above.
7. After power is connected, your GodFather may be installed into the rails of the
Eurorack system case with the eight black M3 screws removed in Step 2.
8. Once fully installed, you may power up your Eurorack system.
Patchbay
Thanks to its semi-modular nature, The GodFather is equipped with a patchbay that
allows creative connections to other electronic music modules and Eurorack
synthesizer systems.
The GodFather contains a total of 19 patch points:
5
● 11 are inputs, identified by the
triangular downward arrow
● 8 are outputs, identified by the
triangular upward arrow.
The Patchbay is designed to work with 3.5mm patch cables only.
A set of 4 is included in your box.
NOTE: When patching, it is OK to split an output signal with a “Mult”, a TS to dual TS
“Y” cable, or by using cables with stackable plugs. Connect only one output signal to a
CV input to prevent over-voltages.
AUDIO INPUT
Each channel has a mono audio input which can accept 10V peak to peak
AUDIO OUTPUT
The audio outputs are available via the 4 jacks, with standard programming
channel 1 is Left, 2 and right, while channels 3 and 4 duplicate the signal of
channels 1 and 2 respectively. Level 10 V peak peak
CV Input
CV INPUT: -10V to +10V
CV OUT
The control signal available via this output reflects the value of the LFO
LFO1 on CV1 OUT
LFO2 on CV2 OUT
CV OUTPUT: 0V to + 5V
GATE INPUT / CLOCK INPUT
A clock signal plugged into this Jack can be used as the Global Tempo
GATE / CLOCK INPUT: 0V to + 5V ( +10V Tolerant-)
(Rising edge = Clock Pulse)
GATE OUT
A clock signal based on the Global Tempo tempo of The GodFather is available
here.
Gate Out value 0V to +5V
6
MIDI IN INPUT
MIDI information is received via this jack using the five-pin DIN socket to 3.5mm
MINI jack (MIDI Type A) adapter included with your The GodFather.
The GodFather can receive master clock (TEMPO) information, and various CC
(Control Change) messages via MIDI (see MIDI Control Change table).
The corresponding LED indicates that MIDI data is being received.

The GodFather Overview
The GodFather is divided into 4 main sections
1. Channels section
2. Function keys
3. Global Section
4. Patchbay
Channels section
Each of the 4 channels is equipped with
7
● Trigger key of the working modes
● Channel “REVOLVER” encoder Assignable with
push button
● Saturation adjustment potentiometer
● Delay level potentiometer
● Double Pulse level potentiometer
● Potentiometer Send Reverb
● Hi-Pass / Low Pass Filter Potentiometer
The channel "REVOLVER" encoder adjusts the audio level of the channel by default.
The function keys assign the parameter to be adjusted for each channel to the channel
"REVOLVER" Encoders.
Press the PAN, COMP, DPD, FDPD or GAIN key to set these knobs to the corresponding
parameter
Processing for each channel
● Level
By rotating the “REVOLVER” encoder relative to the desired channel without
pressing any function key, it is possible to adjust the channel output level.
8
● EQ Shape
Allows you to set the frequencies for the Low cut and High cut filters of each
channel.
Simultaneously press the "SHIFT" key and the "GAIN" key to enter the settings
for the "EQ SHAPE".
Rotating the channel encoder it is possible to select the cut-off frequency of the
“LOW CUT” filter (it cuts the frequencies lower than the specified frequency);
By holding down and rotating the channel encoder it is possible to select the
cutoff frequency of the “HIGH CUT” filter (cuts frequencies higher than the
specified frequency).
● Saturator
Saturator is a wave shaping effect that adds that "dirty, punch, and warmth to the
sound."
The received signals are saturated at the dB level set via the "SATURATOR"
potentiometer on each channel, the sound obtained can become wild and
uncontrollable.
It's a very fun effect to try and tame!
●Compressor
A compressor reduces the gain of signals that exceed a user-definable threshold.
Compression reduces peak levels, increasing headroom (amplitude margin of the
undistorted signal) and allowing the overall level of the signal to be increased.
This gives the signal a higher average level, which results in a louder, more
"punched" sound than an uncompressed signal.
To set the compression values, press the "COMPRESSOR" function key
The screen shows:
Three “Vu-Meters”, respectively “IN”, “GAIN REDUCTION” and “OUT”.
A graph of the “Compressor Transfer Curve.
A column of parameters that can be set.
By rotating the “MENU” encoder it is possible to select the parameter whose
value we want to modify.
The channel "REVOLVER" encoders allow you to adjust the previously selected
parameter for each channel using the "MENU" encoder.
The Threshold slider determines where compression begins. Signals above the
threshold are attenuated according to the value specified by the parameter
“Ratio” (compression ratio) which adjusts the ratio between the input signal and
the output signal.
For example, with a compression ratio of "3", if a signal above the threshold
increases by 3dB, the compressor output will only increase by 1dB. If a signal
above the threshold increases by 6dB, the output will only increase by 2dB. A
"Ratio" of "1" means no compression, regardless of the threshold.
