Re: Recommended online forum for modular synthesis.

2008-03-12 by Doug

Hi Mark, all, newcomer here and very little response to questions 
I've posted here over the last few weeks. Assuming it is due to 
disinterest. It could however be that I did get reponses, but missed 
them because I am new to this forum interface.

Summary of posts follows:

1) Why not have more than just 1 pair of CV/Gate on the back plane? 
Why not have say, four pair per backplane? The various pairs could 
be selectable using jumpers on the backplane at each ribbon connect. 
This was a naive question which reflected one of my first 
observations after purchasing my A-100. Since then I have concluded 
(correctly? don't know) there is simply no good reason.

2) Given my list of current modules, and a couple of prospective 
paths, what might be a recommended way to get two voices in stereo? 
Since asking this question, and discussing this with the folks at 
Analog Haven, it seems the Cwejman stereo mixer is probably the way 
to go.

3) I'm finding what seems to be some frequency filtering going on in 
mixer modules, and perhaps others. Has anyone else seen this? Has 
anyone looked at the frequency response of various Doepfer modules 
(other than filters)? Is there a known freq response spec published 
by Doepfer? This one is still of interest to me and I am thinking 
about how important it is and the degree to which it needs to be 
answered. Behind this question is a desire to learn how to assess 
various modules and their desireability. I caught myself spec-ing 
out spectrum analyzers online today. That could lead to further 
questions for this group, as it's possible that someone else has had 
the same interest. Perhaps a spectrum analyzer is considered by many 
to be an essential part of their modular setup! No idea. I guess 
probably not.

As the author of these subjects, I am not inclined to think them 
uninteresting, of course, but I am willing to accept that judgement. 
I can adjust to whatever this group can provide. If you guys call 
this place home, and there is no other place really (and it sounds 
like that is the case), that says a lot about A-100 enthusiasts and 
what kind of subjects are appropriate and of likely interest to A-
100 people. Pretty much what I aimed to find out in this thread.

Thanks, 
Doug
