a143-2 issue

2006-08-31 by thomasborax

hi lads/lasses-

i've been loving my a143-2 for quite some time.  i have encountered 
a bug in the normalization, and i wondered if anyone else had the 
issue, or had a fix.  i am happy to go into the ciruit itself and do 
a fix, if need be.

here's the issue-  the gate of env 1 is no longer triggering the 
other 3 envs (there are no gate/trigger signals present at the g 
jacksof 2,3, and 4).

this is a wonderful feature of this module.  i'd like to get her 
back to this.  incidentally, the gate jacks work on all the envs, 
just not the normalized gate input 1 controlling all others.  all 
the digital outs work etc.  everything works fine.

actually, now that i think about it.  the module has been slightly 
buggy from the start.  occasionally in "lfo mode", with patch cables 
routing the digtal outs into the gate jack, nothing happens.  
usually it starts blinking away like an lfo, but occasionally 
nothing.

also, a few months ago, i noticed env 4 just up and stopped running 
in tandem with the others, but worked individually.  then it jumped 
back up with the others.

very odd.  the only mod i've done to this module is i soldered in 
different colored LEDs, just to make my system look more like a 
carnival ride.  i can't imagine how doing this could effect the 
operation, but i may be missing the picture.

anybody?
