hi list, i agree with david. despite the fact that i know most of the module numbers by heart,i think it would be more helpful for new members to mention the module function and the number,too. bakis. --- David Salter wrote: > Rarely, but sometimes. > > Maybe emails should use a

I know about 25 modules by the numbers. Modules I´ve got to look up almost every time are the A-150s to A-170s (clock, trigger, CV modifiers etc.) As I don´t have any of them, they still are unknown to me. Hope this will change soon ;-) Paul [Non-text portions of this message hav

Rarely, but sometimes. Maybe emails should use a format like "panning module (A134) connected to two VCA's (A131)" thereby making it obvious which VCA your refering too. Regards David Salter Reuters Consulting Tel: +44 20 7542 2402 Mob: +44 7990562402 Fax: +44 20 7542 2699 -----O

Ok, random question: How many of you have to look up the module numbers mentioned in emails to determine what's being talked about? (With a couple of exceptions -- A-190 and A-111 -- I always think of mine by their functions rather than their numbers.) > -----Original Message----

I use the web interface instead of email, and keep a separate browser window open with the Doepfer module list displayed :-) Seriously, I used to try to be concientious about referring to both function and number, like "A150 VC Switch", or even just function, like "multiple", but

I strongly advice against using multis for vco purpose, it is quite frankly useless in my opinion. If it should be use you need an attenuator to make up for the signal loss. And it seldom ever worked for me. As somebody wrote "it is like making a drawing of a circle with a potato

i agree, that is a great way to go, but he has a System 2 which does not have it, so he would have to get the module and replace one in his system, or get another rack for it.. the quickest/chepest (though not as stable) is with a mult. but hey i am all in favor of more modules..

hi paul, you may want to try using the A185 bus access module for driving the 1/oct inputs of the roland 100, instead of multing for greater accuracy. it has buffered outputs and different jumper settings for more accurate cv and gate distribution. check this url for more info, h

Well, yes, he did mail most of the problem we have seen. But there is always the proverbial "making profit" that most seem to equate with "lets fool the customer as much as possible". That's why we get new synth models evey year that not always does what we expect them to I guess

2002-08-01 by Andreas Lindholm
Well, I am not sold on the 8-bit idea. Sure it can be fun to have a sample degraded to 8bits, but I really think that 16 bit 44khz is a reasonable standard for sound. Otherwise the a-112 seems like a good module. ----- Original Message ----- From: "jmaddocks1975" To: Sent: Thursd

Of course he does. My question is more that given that has 334 modules of Roland and Moog -- which I'm assuming is functional -- I suspect he assembled the Doepfer for some more specialized purpose, and I wonder what it was. It would also be interesting to know if he uses the Doe

2002-08-01 by jmaddocks1975
but 8-bit is fine for waveforms. I agree a DCO would be an excellent module and one I would buy straight away. I really like the DCO in my CZ-1000 (everything else on the synth is boring but the DCO's are very unique) but the A-112 can be an excellent oscillator! No need to limit
2002-08-01 by jmaddocks1975
What about doepfer's own A-112 sampler module, isn't this digital and still cheap? Perhaps people who are interested in a DCO should look at this module first, very powerful module and worth its money! Also, its a Wavetable VCO with voltage controllable Pitch as Analogue Solution

You may be right, but the gear list is taken from his firm's (Media Ventures) website. The number of modules listed also agrees with the photo by his tech Kevin Lightner's photo on Synthfool. I'd be very curious to know the current size of Zimmer's Doepfer and the module rundown
