hello josue, that's not a good comparison,in my opinion.the guitar sound is already very complicated when it leaves the guitar and then it is just distorted by the pedal. but,the triangle waveform is JUST a triangle waveform(a rather pure sound)and then it is processed via a much more complicated device(the a111 expander/complex waveshaper module)before it reaches our ears. so,yes,it could be possible that the organic quality of the sound is caused by the complex waveshaper,maybe. also,the analogue systems vco is created by discrete components but it doesn't sound better than my a111 ,to my ears.so,you cannot say for sure that a discrete vco will sound better than a curtis CEM vco. that said,i still prefer the buchla 259 complex vco module solution!why? because i want a competely new vco module,NOT based on a curtis chip that, sooner or later, we all know that it will become obsolete. bakis. --- "ALMAGATA@telefonica.net" <almagata@telefonica.net> wrote: > Sure mate, or will sound the same a 50`s > stratocaster and a 100$ guitar > if both them are using the same distortion pedal? > Also I`d like to point to the excellent Plan-B VCO > peter grenader is > making, do you think it sound the same than the > A111? > > Josue. > > > <tt> > > So the "organic quality" of a possible > 259 expander > > depends also on > > > > any (im)perfections of the triangle source that > goes in ? > > > ===== Bakis Siros Parallel Worlds / Polariton Athens-Greece [Doepfer_a100] group owner http://www.shimarecords.co.uk http://www.ward12.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
