Doepfer

Hello Olix, I'm not sure what's your question... So my attempt to 
answer it might fail. (There are manuals for each and every module 
only on Doepfer's HP.)
Again, an VCA does not amplify (The A133 is in some respects a very 
usual exception.) The common task of an VCA is to attentuate. E.g. 
patch an VCO into the signal input of an otherwise unpatched VCA (gain 
= 0): The signal is perfectly attentuated. Now, comes in the CV-
controll. Patch an enelope to one of it's CV inputs; say repetive 
short decays and you have a percussive line. The repeated sound of the 
VCO coming from the VCA should be about the same volume as they were 
on leaving the source (VCO). (Gain opened fully clockwise + no CV 
patched into CV1 of the A130 you'll have about the same unattentuated 
level as it is at the source.)
The volume peak of the repetitive sound is determined by the decay 
envelope and with all it's peaks at the same level. This could be 
considered boring. Thus before the decay env. is patched into the VCA 
CV-in you patch it into the Signal In of a 2nd VCA while the Signal 
Out goes to the 1rst VCA. The level of the decay can be controlled 
with another CV-source e.g by the random output of the A118.
TIA, Ingo
