Re: Ways to limit the LFO range...

2006-06-26 by ilanode

Sorry, for posting this twice. just have realized I missed a word 
which is now added:

Hello Dan, Doepfer LFO-modules have no level controll for the output
but most (if not each) *module* have at least one input with a level 
control (attentuator). The VCFs have usually one input without 
attentuator (e.g. A122: CV1 for an 1/V response) and another one with
attentuator (e.g. CV2 for those CVs which does not need to comply
with the 1/V standard). Regards, Ingo (not selfoscilating)
