Analogue systems

Thanks for the suggestions.  Turns out that I had the envelope plugged in to the LOG input of the VCA and moving it to LIN made the attack react correctly.  As for the thump, seems putting an envelope to the fixed VC input of the filter removed that as well.

  hello dan,
  first of all, regarding the rs60 attack "problem": do
  you patch the rs60 cv output to the "log" cv input of
  your final rs180 vca? i think this is the problem that
  you mention. if you patch it into the "lin" input fo
  the vca then you probably get that delay result, i
  think.

  as for the rs510e thump: i guess you know that the
  trapezoid module is also an envelope shaper and that
  means a vca too(in EMS speak). do you patch the
  rs510e's signal output to your mixer directly? that is
  the env/vca output of the module. the trapezoid output
  is a cv output of the modules envelope. 
  so, you have two options: either patch the trapezoid
  output to a final rs180 vca module's log cv input, or
  patch the rs510e's signal output (that means its vca
  output) to your mixing console direct. that way the
  "thump" that you mention will be much lower.
  best regards,
  bakis.
