HI ROEL,
can't exactly help you on this,as i haven't tried the
16 steps sequencer patch,but i suspect the problem is
that the triggers from the a100 pass right thru the
a150,besause they are from 0volts to 12 volts,(i
think...)in contrary, gates(from 0 to 5 volts)work
o.k. with the a150.so,i assume a solution would be to
pass the triggers from the a155 thru an a129/3 module
to attenuate them a bit...this way, they will not pass
thru the a150,and everything will work o.k.,i hope...
I AM REALLY GLAD THAT WE LIKE THE SAME
MUSIC!!!(TANGERINE DREAM,KLAUS SCHULZE...MY BEST
ALBUMS
ARE:ZEIT,ATEM,PHAEDRA,RUBICON,STRATOSFEAR,ENCORE, and
generally all the TD albums of the 70's,and as for
KS:TIMEWIND,PICTUREMUSIC,MIRAGE,"X".,MOONDAWN,BODYLOVE
1/2,DUNE,"...LIVE...").what i wish is i could fine
the"MACULA TRANSFER" album from edgar froese...do you
happen to have a copy of this album??(i love the
AQUA,EPSILON IN MALAYSIAN PALE,albums of his!!)sorry
for the OT,but i have had enough of the
shaltwerk/regelwerk thing....:-)
just to lighten things up!!!:-)
BAKIS SIRROS.
