Re: [Doepfer_a100] Single note Vs Continuous Oscillation

2017-02-06 by Diego Ragnini

assuming that you use an Envelope Generator in your patch, first check the last segment of the EG , the Release pot: R = <50%

in case the EG is not involved in the patch, then I can't see how the gate off (end of note) is performed for every note but the last one...

Hi All,

I'm new to modular synths and got my first Doepfer system last week. I have a very basic newbie question I hope someone can clarify for me. Forgive me if I don't explain this very well but it will try to be as clear as possible.

I have A-100 Basic System 2, and so far I have a managed to get a good handle on all the modules, thanks to various youtube videos and tutorials.

The question I have is related to generating a single note (via midi keyboard or ableton) rather than continuous oscillation of the A-110. I use my midi keyboard (or ableton via USB) with the A-190-4. My understanding is the A-190-4 is hardwired via the system bus to my two A-110 oscillators, and so when I press a key on the midi keyboard the midi signal is translated to a CV signal and sent to the oscillators. This is all working great - I can play the keyboard and control pitch of the A-110 oscillators. My issue is when I stop playing on the keyboard, the last note played continues to oscillate on the A-110.

Do you know if it is possible, maybe through the use of envelope generators or a setting on the A-190, that no sound comes from the A-110 oscillators unless a key is pressed on the midi keyboard and when the key is released no sound is generated? I.e. the oscillator is only triggered when a key is pressed and when not pressed it is not generating a tone (like a hardwired synth with an integrated keyboard).

I hope this question makes sense.

Thanks in advance,
Colum
