Re: arpeggiator

2012-07-05 by Alan Currall

Surely I can't be the only one who regularly uses a midi synth with a built-in arpeggiator as a controller for their modular system? I find my Korg Z1 and my Yamaha KX-25 serve more than adequately all my apreggiator needs. The latter of these can be picked up second hand for pea

As a ballpark figure I'd say 200-300 Euro. A more precise calculation can be made not before more details are fixed. Most of the charges depend on the mechanical parts (front panel, sockets, switches, LCD cover, pcb dimensions) and the features (because of the working time requir

Correct me if i wrong, but 0.4v/us is right how much wee need to process 10vpp ideal 20 kHz triangle waveform. One half-cycle is equal to 10v slew in 25us. Simple calculations give us exactly 0.4v/us to achieve this slew rate. Maybe this parameter is often overrated or requires s

That makes sense. For proper modules such as yours, most of the effort goes into the things that people take for granted so much that they don't even think about. So the amateur ones seem easy to make... until they break because they're not properly protected. :)

Indeed such a module is not very challenging for an electronic designer. But you have to keep in mind some pre-conditions for a modular system: 1. All inputs, outputs, controls and so on have to be available at a suitable front panel 2. All inputs and outputs have to be protected
