Hi to you all, I wasn't a member of this group when this module was being planned. Dieter, would you consider revisiting if there was now more interest? A lot of us are into the buchla sound and would love a complex oscillator like this! Neil Sent from my iPhone

Neil, I'll send you a pdf document that describes the fix of the missing GND. In addition we will add the document to our website (FAQ and DIY page). We will add the fix to all A-155 which are still in stock and from the next production series the pc boards will be corrected. Bes

ah, very interesting, thank you Florian! must begin more new experiments immediately... and yes, things like "beefier" are so entirely subjective to begin with anyway. only in music tech would you find professionals using terms like "beef", "sparkle", "oomph", "bright", etc as pr

Thanks Dieter, That's exactly what I wanted to hear. I have an A-111-5 in my rack, which is similar to the DE 1, imo. Now I can buy a Doepfer DIY-synth and complete it with the very good looking and full of features "XAOC Devices - Karl-Marx-Stadt". Thanks again, have a nice week

Hello As far as I know the DIY synth and the DE2 are quite similar (if not equal). The only difference I find is the clipped Saw at the DE2 @Christian: Your impression that the DE1 is beefier than the DE2 should be caused mainly by the circumstance, that the DE2 uses a exponentia

Thanks Christian, I also have a lot of Doepfer stuff and yes, also a DE1 (A-111-5), but the combination of the DIY- Doepfer and the XAOC Devices - Karl-Marx-Stadt looks very interesting. Grtz.
2015-05-01 by christian ienni
i'm not Dieter (sorry ^_^ ), but as i understand it the various DIY synth possibilities are more or less based on the circuitry of the A100. the Dark Energy 1 is based almost entirely on a single Curtis chip, basically and entire synth voice on one chip (it was originally used in

Yes that's totally true, can only agree there, but most of those were done in a time when the eurorack world consisted only of Doepfer and maybe 2 or 3 other producers. Even in that time Dieter had a strict policy not to tread on other eurorack manufacturers ground. I remember we

Thank you for your reply. Regarding not making modules that already exist… really? if that were the case we wouldn’t have most of the great things Dieter has designed, based on existing equipment but given his own touch which is why I love Doepfer gear. Neil > On 24 Apr 2015, at
2015-04-24 by achtung_999
It's not Doepfer indeed, but it is eurorack. I don't see how you can think that Dieter will be making a module that another eurorack maker is already making. Doesn't seem to be a very good thing business wise I think. But maybe that's just me... Anyways, here's how my A128 expans

And regarding the 2nd part of your question: You could get creative with the synthesis part of the Doepfer vocoder. It's hard to get the exact same functionality going but... Another approach would be to use A128 fixed filterbank - with expander (I build my own version). And use

Hello Neil Thanks for the hint. I did some further experiments the last hour, and can confirm, that the CP1 is more stable on a only slightly varying master frequency, but it would not cover a wider frequency range (more than an octave) of the input signal. For varying frequencie

2015-04-23 by Neil Kagan
I don't know if there is an 'ideal' setup. Certainly CP1 seems more stable than the other two, as it locks at harmonics. I think you might find that it is going to be a process of just trying things until it works... One thing I did notice is that you are looking to do a x40 mult

Hello, is there anyone who can share some deeper experience with the PLL module A-196. I recently bought one, to do some experiments, which should lead to some diy-modules. One idea is, that I want to multiply the frequency of the DIN-Sync clock by 40 to get the CSQ-Clock for my

2015-04-17 by Neil Kagan
I don't think it will; it hasn't been mentioned as far as I know. Originally there was going to be an expansion for the Frequency Shifter to connect with the A-143-9 but this didn't end up being produced. Sent from my iPhone > On 17 Apr 2015, at 21:38, Igor Medeiros igormpc@gmail

Hello, To the best of my knowledge, the idea of the a-143-9 is the same of the Intellijel Dr. Octature, the difference is only the outputs - 45 degrees shifted instead of 90 degrees shifted. Would that be possible to obtain the same result by e.g. the quad polarizer or some other

After fiddling with the trim pots I've got it right to 4 volt for the upper one and 2.5 volt for the lower quantizer. That's good enough for me. I never play them high notes. Thank you for your help Dieter. Next step is to buy a second one :-) Best regards, Karel.

I think I'm going insane! I've soldered the 330K resistor this time. Again the upper Quantizer is used. CV In = 1.000 volt, CV Out 0.923 volt. But sometimes (very sometimes, rare is better) it reads 1.006 volt again. At that moment only when I unplug the CV In it reads 0.85 volt.
