RE: [motm] interesting sequencer idea..?

2000-04-28 by Tkacs, Ken

Off the top of my head, I would think that would not work. While theoretically you could record gates and CVs as digital signals, all of the audio circuitry, filters, etc. in a standard CD player are bound to screw up the output.

I would think you would need to come up with some variation of FSK (frequency-shift-keying) and an outboard conditioning circuit to make this work properly.

I could be wrong.

Subject: [motm] interesting sequencer idea..?

hello all,

glad to back online again (slight computer glitch...)

i had an interesting idea, and would like to pitch it out to the list before i decide it was a crap idea after all, anyway the basis of it is: could you record gate & cv data onto a CD and then use any CD player with a small inline interface as a sequencer..?

with my apallingly optimistic knowledge the following parameters need to be addressed:

gate on left hand channel

cv on right

precision attenuator needed for recording (a 0.1% resistor..?)

a precision amplifier to reinstate the original voltage levels (now this is the difficult bit)

sequencing would probably best be edited in some computer package then burnt direct to cd

so - any comments other than "don't be so stupid"..?

cheers

paul b
