Hi, I just wanted to add to this thread: I used to have modified SH-101, and part of modification was external input. So, I plugged A-111 into it, and I could not hear any difference! And we know that there is a same oscillator chip in A-111, and SH-101 (3340). So, that proves to

hello, yesterday i've received the new a143 quad modules. they are so cool. the a143/1 is totally amazing. also the a143/2 is great. those "end of" trigger outs add so much functionality. i'm going to record some simple examples during the weekend. the a143/3 is a workhorse for i

i can second that. all those vco's have a different character and different benefits. and most important, they all introduce a different sound. but in a starter system i'd still recommend the a111's, because they offer lots of options and they are very easy to use. just my 2 cent

In the end you'll want them all. I've got a couple A111's, a couple Plan B's on order, and a pair of Analogue Systems RS95's. I've also got an ever expanding Blacet system that I plan on adding some VCO's to. They all have such incredibly different character. I could get by with

Yes, I was referring to Blacet VCO's. But the Plan B VCO's are looking extremely interesting. I am considering myself buying a pair of those. Finally a VCO that is diffrent from the rest. I'd say for a first pair of VCOs I would go for a VCO that tracks very well, if you want to

hello, as far as i remember, (i haven't used my a156 for a long time), the a156 does NOT pass the triggers that it receives from it's trigger inputs to its trigger outputs. the a156 output triggers ONLY when the incoming cv changes. so, if you send to the a156 a constant cv, it w
