Hi Florian, thanks for the hint. you mean JP5? that looks properly soldered, like all other solderjoints on the board. and retriggering via LFO while holding down the gate, does retrigger. however it depends on the sustain/decay pot settings. if both are low the EG goes low when

To describe a sine wave mathematically we write the voltage function of time as V(t) = sin(ct) where c is a constant. We can show that c is in fact the frequency, or cycles per unit time (if we normalize to radians). c may be taken to be negative, but in all cases we have the ide

I believe the confusion is calling it positive and negative "frequencies". The frequency doesn't change - only the cycle direction. Here's another way to visualize it: a sine wave can be drawn by moving a point around a circle and plotting its Y axis displacement on a linear stri

That is a very neat method (combining a gate and a trig in one signal) - I didn't know they did that. I imagine that summing both a 5V trigger and a 5V gate would do that. When both are present you would get the Buchla Pulse. The summing would not have to be spot-on to work. I wo

There's also the issue of Gate & Trigger Buchla Pulse I may be a little off on the specifics here (I don't have a scope) but the Buchla pulse jacks carry the equivalent of a gate and trigger. The trigger is imposed on the gate level. Bad ASCII art: _ 10v | | | | 5v | ---- | | 0v.
