Re: AW: [Doepfer_a100] maq 16 cv gate problem

2008-02-12 by Floppy

as the problem occurs with 2 different synthesizers in the same way, i 
really think that my maq is detuned.
but before i open it for calibration i will test it with my new a100 
system just to be sure its the maqs fault.
as i understand the manual there is no danger in doing this procedure ?
im somewhat affraid to open the device and fiddle with a screwdriver 
while its running ...
