A-137 ...Module of the year?

Shit...he did it again. Dieter Dopefer has pulled a off a big winner with the A-137 Wave Multiplier. One of the most unique sound modifiers to come around in some time, and argueably the best waveshaper ever released IMHO. If you don't have one - get real. If you do have one, try

Re: BBD module first mp3 sound clips!!! -> two BBDs

hello denis, a few months ago dieter and i discussed a module with multiple bbd's in a chain, but this solution would introduce a lot of additional and unpleasant noise to the signal. also i don't know if 512 stage bbd's are currently available for a reasonable price. best wishes

From my experience daisy-chaining of BBDs increases the (already existing) noise very much. I'd expect that a 2048 stages BBD sounds much better than two daisy-chained 1024 stage BBDs. And the price for a 2048 stage BBD is not much more than for a 1024 stage BBD (the difference i

In case that the BBD module will be manufactured with 2 BBDs (I'm still waiting for the answer of the BBD manufacturer ...) we will add a separate clock socket for each BBD (normalled to the internal HSVCO) in any case. But the A-163 will probably not be suitable as it was design
