Doepfer

One of the guys at Schneider's Buro in Berlin showed me this particular 
"feature" on a few Doepfer modules a while back, in particular the VCAs. 
I believe it has something to do with buffered vs unbuffered inputs, in 
which case the problem is definitely in the module. If this is the 
cause, perhaps you could rig up a simple voltage follower with a single 
opamp to buffer the VCA inputs?

(I figure, if people want to make electronic music, they should learn 
something about what it's made from: electricity!)

best!
