Re: Request for low cost linear fm

2009-05-20 by pfichoux

Hi Andreas,

Did the mod yesterday evening (connected the cv2 input + pot to the lin fm optional input, AC coupling). The sound is ok but I can't do truly metallic sounds.

I wish there was a way to improve it.

Hi Florian.

I know there is a difference between DX-7 and analog fm.

Thank you both for replies and tip.
