-o_o-....hi!  how are u all ! this is manlovemusic from hong kong.  i like analog machine very 
much!!!! i also got something like system100m, ms20, space ech..........unforuntly.....there is 
no any company for analog synth in hong kong.......so poor.....no fun...... i have put a-100 in 
my wish list already & i 'm saving my bloody money for this machine. is possible to make 
a-100 become a polyphony machine(i know it can but how???), i would learn more about this 
, i know there are many experiential people & expert here....would u please to show me about 
this.......links are also recommand!!!

best regard!!
analog synth never die!!!!

Hi,

it ssems no one did response to you.

Basically it is possible to make an A100 polyphonic; but it will be a 
polyphony like in the Oberheim fourvoice and eightvoice systems. You 
will have to setup the sound of each voice separately (which may be an 
advantage too). Also it will be come seriously expensive (quick 
estimation 3500 USD for a very(!) basic four voice system.

I truely am addicted to the A-100, but I would recommend something on 
software basis for polyphony. I use a Clavia Nord Modular to reproduce 
ideas in polyphony which I developed monophonic on the A100. Meanwhile 
you get a Clavia Micro Modular for 300 USD on ebay... It's ten times 
cheaper, and will be able to do much more than the 3500 USD A-100 version!

Hi.I had the same questions a couple of years ago . I ended up buying the Analogue Systems 
RS370 Polyphonic harmonic generator. I mainly use A100 modules but this is a great module 
that sounds amazing running through doepfer filters. You can get beautifully rich and mello 
pads if you detune the 6 different voices and nasty edgy pads if you run it trough a Wasp 
filter. There is an expander to change the harmonics in real time but this only works if you 
are in Mono mode.

-o_o-....Florian, how are u? this is william, yeah yeah yeah, u right...no one response me, 
so poor, i know what u mean, i just want to plan to set up a four or eight voice 
system ,share one vcf & one adsr...but this will happen after i buy a100 bs1/2(saving $$
$)......if  follow your case ....i also got some like matrix1000 or mks8o & i will use them as 
a polyphony scource....but i just want to set up a real analog set up, i mean there is no 
midi compltely..........! talk later!!!

thanks for your reply
have a nice day
best regard

-o_o-......wah! it look so cool, do doepfer have any smailer polyphony module?, i just want 
to plan to set up a four or eight voice polyphony system ,...but this will happen after i buy 
a100 bs1/2(saving $$$). would u please to tell me more about your polyphony modular 
set up?  how to connect???

thanks

So far there are no plans for such a polyphonic module.

As I have approached this over the past years, there are three types 
of options: 
 (in order of complexity)

1) simple and relatively inexpensive:
Get e.g. a Novation A-station, KS-rack or any other VA module and 
feed its raw unfiltered VCO signal into a single Doepfer VCF + VCA 
module; 
I have found the A-101-1 and A-121 to be working quite good for this.
Connect the midi-in of an A-190 to the midi-thru of the module to 
trigger an A-140 EG that feeds into the CV in of the VCF and VCA 
module(s).
This will give you digital/VA polyphonic VCO's into a single analog 
VCF/VCA in with properly synced EG triggering.

Switch off the internal effects of the VA module, and use a chorus 
(or one or more of the new A-188-1 BBD's) after the VCA for 
modulation effects to sweeten your sound.

2) more "analog like"
Get a Vermona PerFourmer analog 4 voice mono/poly synth module.
It combines great with all Doepfer A-100 stuff.
CV/Gate can be added to this as an option.

3) For real polyphonic analog (like the OB 4 voice):
Doepfer MCV-24 set up in 4-voice polyphonic mode.
four A-110 and/or A-111 VCO's
one A-135 VC mixer (to be used as a quad VCA)
four (identical) A-100 VCF's of your choice.
As many A-143-3 LFO's as you like

The MCV-24 can be programmed to output ADSR signals from its 
software which can be used to drive the A-135 and the VCF's

This option is by far the most elaborate and true "poly analog" but 
requires a lot of modules and time to "program" sounds.


Best regards,
Joost

-o_o-....hi, levka, how are you? thank for Joost & your infor.
1). oh! i really like the real analog.....cv & gate......but if i have to use va as a vco....i prefer 
software like es2, reason ,moog v modular then va hard synth......
2) of course .....PERFOURMER ......i heard some sample about this machine is not 
bad......but few cv control just the basic..( i mean control by extranl 
controller/device....but it is still a choice...
3)........yeah this is still a choice but still have to control by midi device........a little bit 
difference from my real analog.....cv & gate....!

i haven't buy digital hard ware for a long time scine 2000. i use computer & software 
instead all digital hardware......so i can save more extra money to buy real analog stuff!!!!

best wishes
