You only need to add an A-185-1 in one row of the second case, then use a little wire from Doepfer inside the case to connect the two bus boards. (This is assuming you want to send the same CV and gate signals to both rows of the second case.)

Thanks guys for all your reactions! At this moment all three A111 are in the top row. Best is probably to put one in the bottom row. Then add an A185-1 in both rows and connect them to the A190 in the other cabinet. I think I'll just buy a few and try them out, see and hear what

James is right. It's not terribly difficult to do, and in a few rare cases the pins are not connected by a trace. I've done it with a drill as he mentioned, a Dremel tool actually with a 3/32" or 1/8" drill bit. I just drilled through the trace, but not necessarily all the way th

The conversion of modules takes a little DIY skills but is typically not that hard to do. All the jacks that Doepfer uses are normalizing jacks. You look at the Gate or CV input jack and see if the normalizing leg of the tip connection on that jack is connected to anything. Often

Oh I'm not disappointed in Doepfer modules! I have very many of them. I'm disappointed that hardly any of them use the CV/Gate bus. From the Doepfer website: some modules can pick-up the CV signal (e.g. A-110 , A-111-1 , A-111-5 , A-143-4 ) from the bus depending on the jumper se

I have a A-185 in each of my cases (four of them) and the internal buses are linked so both rows get fed. I don't have any modules talking to the bus directly because you never want to have two sources using the bus at the same time. I plug the A-190 into the A-185's input when I

Brilliant! If the signals come out of the 190 into both the bus and the front at the same time, and you only have two oscillators in that first case, then yes, you'll only need an 185 in the second case, the first is already fine. Excellent! ^.^

Just to answer the question: yes, if you plug cables into the cv/gate outputs on the front of the 190 it still sends those signals to the buss. So, right now I have my envelope generators on the same buss as the 190 and they get the gate signal through the buss. But I also take t

Hiya! I'll have a go at answering this too. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. When you use the front pitch and gate outputs on the A-190, does it still send the signals to the bus as well, or are they mutually exclusive? If it still sends to both, then yes, what you suggest

I don't have an A-185, but I think you are correct. The A-190 should provide CV/Gate to Case 1 (only the modules in the same 3U row as the A-190, unless you have the extra cable to connect your bus boards). The sockets on the A-190 can send the signals to the other case's A-185,

Hello Nick The A-101-2 contains a exponentiator circuit, but an opto coupler does not have an exact response curve. That means: the A-101-2 will be "something similar as exponential". But there is another reason why you should have a OTA based VCA: Opto couplers are slow. You nev
