NOT

Inverts one logic state, turning false into true and true into false.

What it does #

NOT produces the complementary binary state of its input. It is useful whenever a gate should close while another gate is open, or when a condition needs its opposite form.

Controls and ports #

Control	Label	Official description
signal_in	Signal In	Signal for inversion
table	Truth table	In NOT 1 0 0 1

Practical uses #

• Create a complementary gate for alternating two signal paths.
• Turn a mute condition into an enable condition.
• Invert a comparator result without rebuilding the comparison.

Things to know #

• The documented truth table is 0 -> 1 and 1 -> 0.
• The visible module is designed for logic states; the exact threshold for arbitrary non-binary inputs is not documented.
• At audio rate, logic inversion flips a pulse waveform's high and low regions rather than reversing audio polarity.

Technical details #

A high-confidence Nitro implementation candidate supports the technical summary, but the visible-module mapping remains inferred.

Boolean transfer function: out = !in. In numerical logic notation, documented inputs 0 and 1 map to 1 - in. The exact-name Nitro candidate exposes the expected one-input/one-output logic wrapper but does not contain a visible process body in the recovered AST.

Open questions #

• Measure how negative, fractional, infinite, and NaN inputs are converted to a Boolean state.

Version and sources #

Checked against Bitwig Studio 6.0.6. This page combines Bitwig's module metadata, the existing Grid course and guides, and Nitro analysis where the mapping is strong enough to support a technical statement.
