Klaus, what Buchla 'keyboard' did you use? The reason i ask, is because i'm curious if the 222e touchplate/input port might work with modules other than Buchlas. -Matt --- On Mon, 12/1/09, klaussununu feedandseedrecords@... > wrote: > From: klaussununu feedandseedrecords@... > >

I've used my TB-303's CV and Gate outs to my Serge panel. Also I think I've used my Monome out to a Kenton Pro2000. No grounding issues, just be careful how you rig it up. The main thing I use for my clock and extra LFOs is the Flame Clockwork. I use that to push my TKB ;) I thin

Until my ship comes in and I can afford a new tkb, or in the more unlikely event that someone decides to sell a used one, can anyone offer suggestions as to how can I control my serge animal panel? I had the pleasure of "playing" it with a buchla keyboard and it was really great.

According to the horse's mouth hisself, "if you see that two outputs are connected together, calmly unpatch them. There's a one in a million chance that a circuit will be damaged." Those were Serge's words directly. I don't know if Rex has addressed any of that 'one in a million'

Has anyone tried searching the archives of this group through Yahoo recently? Regardless of what search string I use, it returns zero results. This used to work, and still does in every other Yahoo group of which I'm a member. Any thoughts? Thanks, George

An AC mixer will attempt to center the signal around zero volts at a rate determined by the value of the components used in the mixer. If the INPUTS are AC coupled, the resultant mix will be an "average" of the incoming signals. A DC mixer adds what it sees at its inputs together
2009-01-10 by John P
the circuit for the CV mixer is optimized for DC or CV, and the audio mixer is happiest with audio frequency signals. The audio mixer's pots have an audio taper, and a processor's pots have a linear taper. Also, the audio mixer will reject DC offsets. Having said that, yes, you c

Hey Smoggers, I have a question that I can't find an answer to, being that the search function has been broken for a while here at yahoo.... what is the differences between the ac mixers and the dc mixers? a. If I run audio into a "blue" dc mixer, does it mix the audio? b. If I r

Well.. I clearly remeber being said on the list, a while back, that out-to-out connection is a nono and that there is a possibility of dammage. I, for one, have accidentally connected outputs together in the past and was lucky not to damage anything. However, if I were you, I'd g

sorry. I beg to differ. I blew out a protective resistor on a DTG once by doing a bad thing. Can't remember what it was that I did. . . might have been a input to a output, but the thing is, there is protective circuitry built into many of the generators and if you screw up it is
2009-01-06 by Skot Wiedmann
The distinction should be made between damaging the circuitry, and all other possibilities. No patch made within the serge system will damage the circuitry. Nor will patching present danger to the user. However, things might get out of hand with outputs patched to each other, whi

It would be very good to know specifically which outputs should not be stacked into a single input (and hence connected together). Th school where I work will soon be receiving an animal panel. I had hoped that the animal panel would be safe in the hands of of the twenty year old

2009-01-05 by John P
whoa. unless I'm misunderstanding you, I believe you mean the outputs are stackable. "fan-out" means driving multiple (separate) inputs from a single output. That, you can do. "fan-in" means attempting to route separate outputs to a single input. Damn, I can't find my Rich Gold b

Thanks for the info, Ty. The EWI rack looks like a good solution and you're right, the price is very reasonable. The only thing I'm not sure about is whether I'll like having the TKB in a vertical rack, it seems like it can be a bit awkward. I suppose I could leave it unracked wh

Really nice list, Matt. " My favorite technique is to DC mix envelope and a TKB layer (like D), then negative-bias the result to control VCA so that when layer D is 0, you get no sound, when it's fully CW, you get full volume. This allows 'accenting' beats as well as rests and fu
