I did some simple patches and found out it is not the 132-3 VCAs making the "thump" it is in fact my new 106-6 filter. Sorry about not being absolutely sure before I posted. I did find some interesting differences between the Asol SY02 and 132-3 which might be of interest to some. the 132-3 reacts much faster to CV as I cannot get the Asol SY02 VCA to click on a fast attack or release. If I use not filter, no "thump" if I use either of the other two filters I have (A108 and M12 Vactrol Filter) no "thump". As soon as I use the A106-6 "thump thump thump". The A106-6 into A132-3 with nothing going into the A106-6 input makes thumps. This brings me to someones suggestion of using a buffer, which I am not sure I understood so I patched the M31 between the A106-6 and A132-3, still "thump". I can really big thumps if I patch just the output of a M31 buffered mult into the A132-3. I can rid of the thump by slowing down the ADSR attack and release as I said. however I think the issues lies in the A106-6 creating a DC offset. Is there a trimmer inside that I could adjust? My audio path post modular is a MOTU 828mk2 with Black Lion mods (analog and clock). I am monitoring it on ATH-M50 headphones. -Argitoth- I do not have web space - is there a free site I can post audio files?
