These are inputs to each JAG (the joysticks are normalled to these 
but can be interrupted) so you can use an external source to drive 
the JAG such as the outputs from LFOs, Noise Rings, WoggleBug, etc.

These are "group" outputs: the dome voltage is determined by X/Y 
proximity to the center of the intersecting zones (with the maximum 
voltage determined by the "dome height" pot) while the edge voltage 
is determined by proximity to ANY outside edge.

No. It actually determines whether the JAG treats the incoming X/Y 
voltages as unipolar (0-10v such as a joystick) or bipolar (-5v to 
+5v such as the Borg LFOs, which actually output a range of -4v to 
+4v if I'm not mistaken).

Hope this helps!

I really need to remember where I put that. If you look in the "photos" section there are 
color coded 3D plots of the functions.

The Joysticks are normalized to the JAG inputs. Xin and Yin are the JAG inputs which defeat 
the Joystick outputs.

Dome is high in the middle and zeroish at any edge. Edge is 5 volts in the middle, high at 
each side and zero at the corners.

Polarity switches the inputs ONLY from 0-10 for controllers to +/-5 for modulators (LFOS)
