Doepfer

Hello guys! one of my favorite thing to do in my dave smith Evolver is to
assign diffrent modulation tracks with diffrent types of LFO, all assigned
to the same parameter, one cool way to make almoust knobmovement-like
modulation.. another famous example is the start of "we are the robots" by
Kraftwerk, where sounds and modulations comes after one another.
So a easy way to archive this would be a CV controlled Linear mixer with
diffrent LFO:s (for example) routed to each input, but what module will i
need to be able to "spread" one gate signal (or CV signal) to four diffrent
inputs? I have looked at the A-151.. is that the way to go here? but with
that i cant control on to what output it will send to, only the next I/O
and also on A-151, what does the "O/I : Common out / input" mean? if
connecting many A-151 in a row?
Any thoughts on this are very welcomed, also if A-166 can be used and how
it works (in baby steps because my brain hurts reading about it ;)

also if someone have any tip on books on modular, patching & sound design
with it, please tell me :)

If I understand you correctly then the A-138m Matrix Mixer will do what you want, and in a straight-forward way.
Up to four modulation sources can be assigned, by mixing them together, to up to four parameters.
I find it super useful. In bi-polar mode it's a bit like the patch router on my old MS2000 VA.
And it also works for audio!

hth,

yes! but i cant modulate the inputs can I?
I want to be able to switch modulation sources with CV, sum of that, routed
to one modulation input.
like for example= one second sinewave, next second squarewave, two second
random, etc (for example)
thanks for your reply tho!

ah, I see -
yes maybe the A-151 will let you do that or smth similar.

If you plug your modulation input into the common jack, and your different modulation sources into the 4 others, 
then it will switch from one source to the next every time it receives a trigger on trig in.

It works in both directions, which is perhaps causing some confusion -
you can connect one source to four destinations in the same way.

Are you looking to switch between inputs A, B, C, D, or do you want a 
smooth fade between the sources? For wave sequencing or even modulation 
routings, seems a programmable fade between sources would be better, 
unless you specifically want a switch - so you're looking for an 
interpolating scanner.

I'm not sure there's an equivalent in the Doepfer range, but it could be 
patched with a combination of modules.

Vector mixing with something like the Intellijel Planar does this with 
either audio or CV sources.

The Toppobrillo Mixiplexer (don't think it's out just yet) looks like 
the cat's pajamas for this too.

For this you may use the A-152 that includes both a voltage controlled and
clock controlled octal switch. For smooth transisions the combo A-135/144
(voltage controlled mixer + morphing controller) may be used. The current
version of the A-135 allows only the mixing of audio signals. But we are
working on a new DC coupled version of the A-135 that will also have single
VCA outputs available. The new version is planned for spring 2013.

Best wishes
Dieter Doepfer

ok cool!
