Ken @ Richard, Thanks for your replies! I'll put an attentuator after the CV In since the quantizer *should* be at the output it's fine to attentuated non quantized signals from e.g. my noise source without an output attentuator. My brief testing with an quant. signal suggests th

Hi Dave, The Bridechamber panel is more or less laid out like the CGS Seq Switch. It adds a glide circuit before the outputs, which means a trace needs cutting. Each jack is normalled to 15V, so that the module works as a normal sequencer when no inputs are used. With the inputs

I've used quantizers on the ASR inputs. There is a slight DC offset that's a little different on each of the three outputs. But sometimes the results are quite acceptable: http://pugix.com/synth/chords/ I've got four quantizers now, but six ASR outputs! -Richard Brewster sasami@.
