im definitely satisfied with my analog systems VCO. I'm not sure if I could buy Tip Top Audio VCO, it would have slightly different pitch tracking... hmm. well just check out the non-buzzy tones I was getting out of my Analog Systems VCO today: http://www.elanhickler.com/misc/ana

Hello Mr. Blacet, I'm currently using 2 x Analogue Solutions M2CV units. The only thing that I would think to add to these would be a DIP switch, or rotary selector, that would 'hard-set' the MIDI channel. This would be in addition to having the very handy MIDI Learn button/featu

Frequency Divider, you are missing the point. 1. Discuss Tip Top Audio VCO waveform quality 2. Compate Top Top Audio VCO to other VCOs 3. Discover that Tip Top Audio sine/tri aren't that great 4. Discover that very few VCOs have much better waveshapes 5. Discuss how one might get

Not at all! I am quite satisfied with the sound of modern synths. I have no problems with the sound of new synths. I bought my first synth in 1974, a Synthi VCS3 (for $500 BTW) an have owned almost every major brand old school synth since then (Pro-Ones, Oberheim 4 & 2, Arps, Rol

Yeah, exactly! I figured Tip Top Audioo VCO sine was NOT buzzy, but just harmonically rich, there's a huge difference. Buzzy sounds like "ZZZZZ," harmonically rich sounds like, "VVVVV." Buzzy, BAD, harmonically rich, ACCEPTABLE. Holy crap, did you just notice that the letter V lo

2008-11-25 by laryn91
Hove you successfully done this or just hypothesizing? 1 - VCFs don't track nearly as accurately as VCOs so I can hear timbre changes when pitch changes 2 - The VCF introduces a phase shift so the VCO waves are no longer sync'd in a determined way. 3 - The level of the "sine" cha

2008-11-25 by laryn91
I don't think anyone is advocating that VCOs should produce a "perfect" sine. Just simply a clean wave what has no audible buzz or distortion. That 's what defines a sine - just the fundamental component. Anything else is NOT A SINE WAVE. It seems either ignorant, sloppy or misle

Hi James; Tiptop didn't set out to make a perfect sine - in fact, one of the things that the testers talked about during beta was just how wonderful this sine _sounds_. I agree that I wouldn't use this sine as a LFO source for the perfect panner or some-such, but you really shoul
