Thanks a lot for any of your responses! @Tim, even though I had an older threat in in mind I was puzzled about the module. You're right: reading the manual makes a difference. However, still the almost non existing effect on any VCO waveforms make me wonder wether this partic. module works as it fellow A136s or not. Unfortunately I didn't gave it no try on CVs. Regards, Ingo (@Ingo thanks for your offer, I'll get back on you later. I've hardly access to net at the moment.) --- In Doepfer_a100@yahoogroups.com, "Tim Stinchcombe" <timothy@t...> wrote: > > Hi Ingo, > This question of the A-136 has come up several times in the past - > it is quite a tricky module to get to grips with, and matters aren't > helped by the manual not being as precise as it could be. > > Check out posts #307 and #1172, but read them carefully!
