Re: [Doepfer_a100] Emulating EMS-Synth

2004-05-12 by James Husted

I devoted one portable Doepfer rack I have to emulating a AKS. It can  
sound in many ways similar and have the same functions, but what it  
lacks is the control voltage ranges are not as sensitive as on the AKS.  
I used to own 2 AKSs and a VCS3 and the VCOs would sweep a larger range  
and the joystick had much more range also (I have a AS joystick in my  
rig). The difference in 1v/oct and .32v/oct as you can guess. You will  
have to get AS VCOs to get the waveshaping, and as mentioned, the AS  
envelope shaper clone to re-create that (I just have the Doepfer VCA on  
mine). The rig is just as portable for me but the patch cord vs. pin  
matrix was a BIG change for me. It is MUCH easier to set up stuff on  
the pin matrix even though with a typical portable Doepfer rack full  
you have many more patch points than can fit on a decent pin matrix.
