In principle both A-171 and A-129-3/4 are VC slew limiters. But the working principles and the features are very different. The A-171 uses an operational transconductance amplifier (OTA CA3080) to create the slewed voltage. It has a continuous output (no quantization). For the vo

The matrix idea (built into the synthi range) attracted me - I used to have a VCS3 - But with the present big modular I've built up, I'd need a matrix panel with around 17,000 sockets ! This would occupy a surface area at least as large as my synthesiser front panel, over 48 inch
