Hi, chilluns! This idea is simple, cheap, and desperately needed: A switch trigger In and Out Conversion module for interface with Moog equipment. Appropriate Cinch-Jones jacks would be nice, too. The A-165 Trigger Modifier won't do it. Someone mentioned a simple, but untested, m

I like the idea of a cheap VCO bank, but you would need tuning knobs for all three osc's. A nice CV input to have in such a module would be voltage controlled detuning of osc's 2 and 3 in opposite directions (e.g. one volt on this input should tune one osc. down one octave, anoth

I think is a matter of opinions but the "most perfect" waveform is not the most musical or good sounding wave... for example I preffer the A-110 over the A-111 everytime, the CEM based A111 would be very useful for low drift aplications or when purer waves are needed but the soun

With apologies I find this an uneducated and vaguely preposterous stance. Various oscillators have various feature sets but the interest in any synth sound lies overwhelmingly with the patching and disappearingly little with the specific VCO used. --Chuck ________________________

you can say the a-111 sounds better than the a-110 (but not 20 times :-) by just comparing the 'basic' waveforms, but the basic sound of the model 15 and the a-111 is more or less identical. the model 15 fm is more extreme than the a-111, but not really a *lot* more versatile in

Florian, 2.53 V reference voltage are OK. With this reference you should measure about 0...+2.5V CV at the output A of the MAX512 with 5 octaves jumps. O23 is used to double the CV output of the MAX512 (amplification ~ 2, adjustable with trimming pot P26) to obtain the 0...5V CV
