Hi Bakis, Thanks for replying! Regarding your statement: “with no input on the vcxfade input, indeed you should only hear input 1 on the fully left setting of the xfade knob and input 2 on the fully right.” Would you mind double-checking that for me? That’s definitely not the res

X Fader questions

2008-12-23 by ty hodson

Hey all, I’m trying to get my head around what the X Fader can and can’t do. According to the module info, if I have two audio signals plugged into it, then as one signal fades in volume, the other should increase. But I’m having trouble finding a patch that will demonstrate this

I'm pretty sure what you're hearing is normal. If you patch an audio signal into IN FM and vary the VC FM by hand or by voltage control, you should hear proper FM effects. verstaerker wrote: > > hello group > > i had a very exciting day today, because my Animal arrived > > except

Hi John, Unfortunately, its not only longer attack times where the missing retriggering functionality can become a problem. Image a very simple patch in which one half of a DSG/DTG is controlling both the cutoff frequency of a lowpass filter and the final patch volume via a VCA.

The retriggering problem you mention is only a nuisance with longer attack times. If you send a gate to 'INPUT' instead of 'TRIG IN' and use fairly short attack times, you can work around this limitation. metafoetus2002 wrote: > > Hi James, > > thanks for doing this! I just have
