Re: [Doepfer_a100] too many volts on the a132-3?

2010-02-08 by Greg Cerveny

The orb defaults to a 12v trigger. I need see if I can adjust it.

Oy... I'm an idiot.  When trying out other envelopes, I realized that it was
the cv attenuator that was the problem.  I gave it 100 rotates and now it's
working.
