dark energy VCO range

2011-02-06 by Monroe Eskew

Hello,

I am wondering about the CV tracking range of the dark energy.  I was just
about to buy one but want to make sure it's right for me.  I read a
description of the CEM3394 and it said that the VCO accepts +/- 4V.  I'm
sure the input is divided by some factor before being fed into the Curtis
chip, but is the range still limited?  The description says the CV1 on the
back outputs 0 to 5V.  So do you run into a CV ceiling if you are using a
large keyboard and toggling the octave switch and the tuning pot, i.e. you
cannot go more than 5 octaves above the center pitch?

Thanks,
Monroe
