Re: [Doepfer_a100] Re: A-101-2 Vactrol Low Pass Gate - WTF?

the doepfer is unusual because its a single unit and the others are all dual or quad. I wonder if that is a problem, also I wonder how essential a gate delay, or dual gate delay is for ths kind of sound - I have an AS single gate delay at the moment

  OK, except the Doepfer one already mentioned. Sorry, shot too quick on 
  that one... I spend a lot more time on the SDIY forums and lists than 
  here, so making it yourself is always my first response ;-)

  The Doepfer one seems like it should do what the Buchla ones did, but of 
  course Buchla sprinkled a lot of extra magic in his designs...

  best,
  D.
