It's a pre-amp. So yes, it does gain.But it is doing a lot more! It's also an envelope follower and a gate/trigger generator. Be careful though it can also distort your signal like crazy, if you are not careful. In the video I posted earlier I use it to amplify the output of the

You'll need at least -5V to +5V for proper CV handling in a modular; probably even more. It's especially the through-zero portion that is important... But the 1KHz sampling rate is the instant killer in this case. Volta works at up-to 192KHz, and that's more like it. _g On 27 Jan

No, not really, 0V to +5V is not adequate for CV, and a sample rate of 1KHz is far from sufficient. _g On 27 Jan 2009, at 00:03, achtung_999 wrote: > Hello Don, > The proposed OSC device is not necessery. Something like that already > exists! > Check out what the people at Sonolo

I wish the A-192 were that easy to use. I have one, I only use it with Max/MSP since i have a "sensor" reading patch. The A-192 only accepts positive signals, and anything faster than MIDI, or even very close to midi speed will not be as good as recording a CV on the modular side

It's not just the envelope that makes ASys trapazoid generator a useful module. It has a built in VCA, (which ignores the polarity of the env output so you always get a pos signal gating), self cycles (in very interesting ways) and when paired with the Synthi filter, it does some

Just curious, what is the the advantage of a trapezoid generator? It seems musically inferior to an ADSR to me. Though the "ON" function is unique, I can't think of a good application of it. And it can be easily emulated with a standard ASR plus a comparator (plus perhaps a min/m
