A good suggestion, but I have never expected the VU-module to become cheaper than a cheap chinese multimeter. What about the rest of you? Bakis, wouldn't a VU-meter with in Doepfer brand be much cooler? I have a multimeter, but since I use my a100 also as "furniture" it looks cooler in the studio than a rag-tag collection of gear glue, screwed och taped to the case... Not the heaviest argument for many but for me it counts for me I like my stuff neat. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bakis Sirros" <synth_freak_2000@yahoo.com> To: "Doepfer_a100 group" <doepfer_a100@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Friday, July 04, 2003 1:55 PM Subject: [Doepfer_a100] Fwd: low-cost digital multimeter suitable for A-100(doepfer's suggestion...) > > --- Dieter Doepfer <hardware@doepfer.de> wrote: > > From: "Dieter Doepfer" <hardware@doepfer.de> > > To: "Bakis Sirros" <synth_freak_2000@yahoo.com> > > Subject: low-cost digital multimeter suitable for > > A-100 > > Date: Fri, 4 Jul 2003 13:53:12 +0200 > > > > To all who are interested in a digital multimeter > > suitable for A-100: > > > > The German electronic distributor Conrad > > (www.conrad.de) offers a low-cost > > digital multimeter (VC555) at 5.95 Euro (or even > > 3.95 Euro for a limited > > period).
