Ah, I missed the ACCENT input, respectively I thought it would expect a trigger rather than CV.Synthbuilder wrote:Signal path is the traditional VCO1 & VCO2 -> VCF -> VCA. There is an additional triangle wave output on VCO1 that can go direct to the VCA bypassing the VCF. Envelope 1 can control VCO2 pitch and VCO2 pulse width (via normalised connections on the socket field) and VCF frequency. Envelope 2 controls VCA only although, like Envelope 1, has its own output socket.Leverkusen wrote:I am not sure if I fully understand the signal path. I guess one of the envelopes goes to the VCA. But the LFO does not and it's not possible to open the VCA by hand/externally or tap the filter output, right?
The level of Envelope 1 being sent to the VCF's control input is also controlled by a positive CV at the ENV1 ACCENT socket. This is useful for velocity controlled filter sweeps. The socket is normalised to +5V when there is no plug inserted.
With no jack inserted into the gate socket the gate is high so both envelopes are in sustain mode. You can then allow the VCA to open (drone mode) with the sustain control on Envelope 2. Although without any CV in the Key CV socket both VCO's will both be oscillating at quite a low frequency.

So the idea is that velocity response and tremolo would be achieved via the filter - they both would not affect the triangle wave then, right?
I wonder if additional VCA offset and CV inputs could be an option for a possible MU version?
I like the unconnected gate high/drone mode. That's a nifty idea.
Looking forward to sound examples!
