Thanks for tips! I´ll take look at the Sequentix and the others mentioned. Maybe the Polyevolver, though it lacks gatebuttons, isn´t such a bad choice either. It can store 128 x 4 patterns besides. But off course, it´s only interesting if one needs the synthpart. Matteus --- In D

Hi, > Where can I find info on making gate and cv circuits? For creating a gate you simply might use the A-119 external input module or the A-167 comparator module. For the CV it is not that easy. I would recommend to use a ready made Fq/CV converter (as far as I remember Roland

Hi Florian.. thanks for the ideas, this is more of what I'm looking for. Though the Eowave is interesting (thanks Bryan) it is probably more complex than what I'm thinking of since it involves midi. Perhaps I should build little cv/gate interfaces. I'd love to be able to use very

I have to concur, the P3 is a wonderful sequencer with many creative, randomising and modulation possibilties and its creator is incredibly responsive to his customers, who he seems to treat as clients when I get a sequence going I often have to stop working on a track and just l

____ Hi Matteus, Have you considered the Sequentix P3 sequencer. www.sequentix.com It pretty much the most creative sequencer out there. Sold my schaltwerk at a loss and never looked back( I am still upset about it). At best, the Schaltwerk is a glorified TR-808 drum style sequen

By the way. While owning the kenton pro-solo I made a complete "sysex-integrated" midi-device panel for cubase SX3. Works like a VST plug-in with the automatation functions "R" & "W" (read-write). As I became almost an expert in constructing these things, I used my skills to help

I agree with you, that there is not anything special about the character of the filter, it sounds good but also very neutral. I´ve become convinced that the warmth and "crisp" is because of the valves. So the strength with the product, aside from the valves, is the midi-control a

Hello Dieter, We were thinking that it might have been an engineering change or something. The A-190 that replaced my old one had those 2 chips.Maybe the new A-190 was from old stock. Either way I'm very happy. My system works and sounds great! Thanks again, Shane Dieter Doepfer

2006-04-03 by Dieter Doepfer
In principle each (or at least most) VCA can be used for a lot of voltage controlles applications (filters, phasers, oscillators, VCADSR's, and many more). As the SSM2164 has current outputs it is very easy to built a filter (e.g. state variable or 24dB LP) around the SSM2164 by

It's hard from the distance to find out what's wrong. Normally replacing all integrated circuits should solve the problem. But if there is a mechanical fault (broken part or cable) or a defective passive part (resistor, capacitor) it might be difficult to find the reason. I don't

Sorry there is no chance that the Schaltwerk/Regelwerk will be available in the future. The main reason is that there are many parts used that are not ROHS compatible and/or even no longer available (e.g. the main processor SAB80C537 is not available in a ROHS-compatible version

Thanks! It´s a bit funny, I think, that they (A&H) have chosen such an atypical chip for filtering. I have been reading the info at "analog devices" and this application is just mentioned very briefly. Anyhow, it sounds great as a filter, but provides no selfoscillation. But I´m

hello martin, over the weekend i checked my technical documents about the ssm2164 again. this chip can be found in several modules. for example, blacet uses it a lot. usually the ic itself is not configured to work as a filter, but it can be found in vcf's as a support chip to ma

Hello All, Just wanted to update everyone on my VCO tuning issue. Turns out that it was the A-190 MCVS causing the problem. Here's the kicker though...There were 2 chips missing from the circuit board! Looks like one of them was a CMOS chip of some kind and the other we didn't kn

Does anyone know if these are actually going to be reissued? I feel it was way too early to cancel these amazing pieces of hardware. wtf! Let us all pray that Doepfer re-releases the Schaltwerk. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yaho

I aquired a used A-110 that does not output any signal. I have traced the board with a scope and found a point near the BC559 marking that outputs saw wave. I assume this is the output of the saw core. Since I am not finding signal anywhere else on the board I swapped out both TL

Thanks Mr. Doepfer! I figured since both VCOs sound perfect when I connect them directly to my sound card that it couldn't be the VCOs. I'm heading up to Analogue Haven tomorrow and I will see if I can put a different A-190 in my system and test it. (Also pick up more goodies!) T

If both A-110 behave in the same way probably not the A-110's but the A-190 is the reason (a bit non-linear DA converter ?). If the two A-110 behave different probably the scale and or HF correction of the misbehaving A-110 has to be readjusted. If you will not get the A-110/A-19

Maybe you have sent a midi controller #1 (modulation) that activates the internal LFO of the A-190 (for details please refer to page 14, 18 an 19, of the A-190 user's manual. Controller #1 controls the LFO level, #92 the LFO frequency. Best wishes Dieter Doepfer > -----Ursprüngli

The SSM2164 is e.g. used in the A-107. It is a quad VCA with exponential control scale and is manufactured by Analog Devices. You can find a data sheet on their website. Best wishes Dieter Doepfer > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: Doepfer_a100@yahoogroups.com > [mailto:D

Thanks Louis, I tried configuring the 1v/ oct through the menu on the A-190. Although I was able to "tune" it this way, I still get only an octave. Also, sometimes the VCO....uh..."freaks out". It sounds like it can't lock on to the note. Kind of like someone took the pitch bende

Hi Martin, on principle, this IC can be used for a typical four pole VCF as the Roland IR3109 (in all analogue Roland Synths from JP8 and SH101 ongoing) or the SSM 2040 (not the SSM2044 which is used in the A-105). The sound would be in middle between the A-105 and the A-122. I d

I know that you can use the SSM2164 in a filter, but check out these sites. It may help you understand more on how it is used. http://www.charlielamm.com/synth/duallinearvca.php http://www.analog.com/en/prod/0,2877,SSM2164,00.html On 3/30/06, Martin Rudling wrote: > > I didn´t fo

Cheers- I was sending an arpeggio from my sequencer to my A-190 (which I finally got working after a couple of years!!) and after about 20 minutes, there was an added LFO or vibrato onto the CV output of the 190, as it was till playing the notes... When I unplugged the 190 form t

hello martin, ok, i see. i just misinterpreted "amusement" ;-) the valves should be responsible for the coloring and the warmth of the filter, while the ssm2164 provides the filter functions. i think that blacet uses the ssm2164 in some of their designs, but i'm not sure if they
