Analogue-sequencer

Hi,
Now we're on the Mini CV subject.
I'm planning to do that filter CV-follow mod. I really miss filter tracking when controlling the mini from the P3. Osc-sync is another mod which I'm thinking about...(!)

Now I have a question about the glide. I know most midi-cv converters offer glide but I really prefer to do it on the synth (like on the SH-101). That way you can tweak it live, more hands on :-)
Am I correct that the glide circuit is a seperate circuit, it's just a lag processor isn't it? Could it be possible to let the external CV go through the glide circuit??
Did you ever think about it to do it this way Collin? It seems that you've studied the Mini schematics before... Do you have time to look into it?? It seems to me that you actually know how to read schematics :-). It would be nice to know where to insert the CV -before- the glide circuit..
Sorry for asking... but you're probably the best person to ask.
Cheers,
Eric

  The minimoog's CV in facilities are not what you might expect - no filter
  tracking, and the glide circuit is in the keyboard, so it doesn't affect
  note CV. There's a mod on the web for adding filter tracking:
  http://analog.no/mods/moog_minimoog_cv.htm
  I would have thought there was a slide option in the Pro 4 that you could
  set up.

  I have a home built CV convertor on my minimoog, with an auto-glide circuit,
  and a CV mixer for routing note and velocity CV to the filter CV input.
  That's a better approach if you want to leave your minimoog unmodified.
