Re: [Doepfer_a100] LFO Divisions

2008-02-13 by Anwander, Florian

Hi Ken,

to my experience, there is no analogue LFO which can do this.
Most of the advanced MIDI-CV interfaces provide soft-LFOs with a tempo 
that corresponds to the clock in a certain ratio. It might be a good 
idea to create a partially digital module like this:

clock in (16th) -> the clock reads waveforms out of a memory, which 
provide stepped waveforms. The clock to wavelength ration should be 
selectable, not only as divede by two ratio, but also with other ratios.
A clock-to-CV converter (doesn't have to be very exact, and should be 
quite easy to develop) controls an internal slewlimiter which smoothens 
the steps of the stepped waveform. Access to the stepped waveform might 
be interesting too.

I did a soundexample for my book, 
http://fa.utfs.org//musik/synthesizer-buch/book-audioexample-26.mp3
which uses also uneven ratios for the clock-to-wavelength relation.

Regards, Florian
