A simple patch with the A-119 Ext.Input/Env.Follower

A simple patch with the A-119 Ext.Input/Env.Follower

2018-05-18 by Diego Ragnini

Hello everybody,

Hope someone can help me somehow

I have a simple patch involving this module:
A mult signal from electric rhythmic guitar (muted peaks: extremely transient short envelopes) feeds the module to create gates which in turn are used to trigger MI Rings. The problem - it seems to me - is that a further gate is not created until the previous guitar peak is not completely “silenced”… : of course, the module cannot generate a new gate until the previous is HIGH… 

I had tried to manage the thing by the means of the threshold knob but it doesn’t solve (and this is strange)… Anybody any hint please?

I do believe the module includes a comparator at the threshold stage: should I try using another comparator in the patch?

Best regards, Diego

Maybe use a noisegate in front of the A119?

Thank you Jacco
I don’t own a pedal noise gate, is there any in eurorack format? Though probably it will not be too different from a comparator + a kind of logic module...

Hello,

in principle it should work. As you suppose the gate is simply derived from
the envelope signal by means of a comparator with adjustable threshold. I'd
recommend to set the threshold fully clockwise (max. threshold value, about
+9V) and then reduce the gain until the gate output behaves as desired.

Sorry Dieter, is the hysteresis concerned by this situation?

The hysteresis of the A-119 comparator is fixed (defined by the resistor
R28) and cannot be changed like the A-167 which has a Gap control.
