Re: [Doepfer_a100] Re: A121 resonance

2010-12-16 by Florian Anwander

Hi Ingo

I think this is partially "normal", especially in higher frequencies.

The Spec-Sheet of the CEM3320 also notes: that the resonance frequencies 
of the various filtertypes are different for the same values:

Page 4, 2nd column.


You also may observe that the highpass becomes a littlebit bandpasss 
like in the higher frequencies. There is an modification to prevent 
this, this modification also removes this drop in cutoff - but the 
negative side of this modfication is, that the selfosciallation becomes 
a little uncontrollable in higher regions.
