Hi
I was wondering if it's possible to trigger the CV input on A-150 (dual VCS) with a short audio sound?
This is off course possible on the A-151 - which I all ready own - but I hope that I can do the same with the A-150? 
Thanks
Simon

It may work if the level is high enough. But I'd recommend the gate output
of an A-119 to control the A-150.

Thanks for the fast reply.
What about a trigger signal ?
I will use the A-150 as a gate for audio signals and control which output should be enabled. It's important for me to control it from Max/Msp.
 
Thanks.
Simon

If you have an interface available that generates a gate signal (not a
trigger, that's only a short pulse) from Max/Msp it will work, i.e. you can
control the switching between two audio signals from Max/Msp.

Okay, thanks.
I want to switch between at least ten different audio signals going into four different "effect-chains". 
So lets say that the audio signal goes into the A-119, then into the A-182 and then sending four signals to two A-150. 
Now it's possible to distribute the audio signal between the four chains.
But this means that I need to control two CV inputs from a midi/CV interface for each audio signal and in the end, that's a lot!
Here I was hoping that I could control all these CV inputs with two MT9 MIDI to Trigger/Gate converter from Analogue Solutions.

This solution means that I need to buy twenty A-150, seven or eight A-182, ten A-119 and then a mixer - like three A-138 for each chain - inserted before the four chains. 
So twelve A-138!
After the 4 chains I want the output send to A-134, but also to the other chains.
This i controlled in Max/Msp, because the output of the A-134 goes into the laptop.

I have been thinking about this setup for a long time, but I still believe that there must be a more simple solution....

Does the input of the A-119 accepts 48v ?
Thanks

I think for this application several A-152 are a better solution. In this
case you need only one CV for each A-152 that addresses one of 8 inputs. The
A-152 have only 8 (instead of the required 10) inputs available. If really
necessary A-150 can be added to switch between two groups of 8 (i.e. 16).

No. It's limited to -12V....+12V. You have to add an attenuator (e.g.
A-183-1).

Hi Simon,

to me your "48V" sounds a littlebit like you think about splitting a 
microphone signal which is fed with phantom power.

If i am right: These 48V are not signal level, but something completely 
different. If you want to feed the A119 with a microphone, that requires 
phantom power you have to use a mic split box that provides the phantom 
power fro the microphone and then send the output of the splitbox to the 
A119 on one side and to the mixer on the other side.

Thanks for your replies - I have found out that I want to split the Saxophone signal before it goes into the soundcard, in order to avoid to many out-and inputs.
The reason is, that I need the envelope generated from the Saxophone available in my modular system all the time, but the audio signal has to be switched off from time to time.
A split box is maybe a good idea, the box will then deliver the necessary power to the mic and I can send the signal to the A-119. So if I understand you correctly, the output from a split box does not "carry" the phantom power?
I really have to read the manual for the A-152, thanks for the tip.

Yes. Unfortunately I cannot name you a brand to recommend.
