Re: synch'ing the bbd

2007-11-26 by Stu Grimshaw

many thanks, dieter. so this is how a pitch to cv converter works?
fortunately i have both modules here, so i can report that it was very
successful, although i have yet to do the fine tuning necessary for a
linear relationship between the tempos - but then the non-linearities
are wicked too, as so often with all this modular stuff :)

and any patch with a ripple parameter must be good!

thanks again,

stu
