Doepfer

I've always been interested in doepfers Frequency Shifter module but 
after been dissapointed with the A-119 module wasn't sure about 
getting one without hearing it first.
All this recent talk about the module has made me want one again.

Does anyone know any websites where I can hear DOEPFERS frequency 
shifter in action?
Or if someone could upload an mp3 to this site would be cool.

Thanks
JOhn

Id be happy to do that...and you'll be blown away.  I have a patch 
up now which gives a dramatric effect of what the freq shifter will 
do to a normal sound, minding it's own business.

I just have to figure out how to make an MP3!  I use Digital 
Performer on a Mac.  If anyone knows of software required to do 
that, please get in touch at petergrenader@mksound.com.

I also have Liquid audio - i think (ithink) that will do the 
conversion of AIFF. yes?

I threw one in the files section (on the left) called 
CD_feedback.mp3.  Basically, it's a A121 filter breaking into 
oscillation.  The A121 is then run through the A126, which is being 
modulated by a low frequency square wave.  The Up and Down outputs of 
the A126 were sent left and right, which the output of the A121 was 
mixed in for good measure.

Basically, it's a nasty sounding patch, but I needed a feedback loop, 
and really didn't want everything that goes along with hiring a 
guitar player... at least not for a few seconds of pseudo feedback.

Regards,
Kevin

John, what do you say? You  were disappointed with the A-119? 
To be honest that´s my favorite module; it´s so versatile. You can use it as a simple distortion, as a buffered mini-multiple, as a pre-amp and not to forget the envelope follower. 
Plug in a microphone and be prepared for weird modulations by your voice when using the envelope out. 
the module is great for gating and you even can build a simple compressor/ limiter! Check: http://www.analogue.org/network/dynamics.htm

Just a little useful device in my eyes.

Err... I checked my notes, and discovered that I actually used an 
A110 into the A124 Wasp filter, which was modulated by predominently 
red noise. The output of the A124 was then sent to the A126, which 
was modulated by the square wave LFO of the A191.

So much for my memory, eh?

oops!
I meant the A-116 (Waveform processor) not the A-119 :-D
Yes A-119 is a good module, as you say a very good distortion box, I 
use it to distort beats a lot and to overdrive waveforms,

My dissapointment was at the A-116, to subtle for me, BUT its still 
a good module. Kinda of like PWM for any waveform.
