hello list,
some thoughts about the planned modules.
a143-1
------
the suggested version 4 is clearly my
favorite. some things which would be
nice: additional end-of-attack trigger outs,
retrigger inputs, switches instead of
jumpers (even when it is more expensive),
range switches.
a143-2
------
i'd like to have sinewave outputs.
a143-3
------
a range switch would be cool.
those "end of" trigger outs are a very
cool idea. is it end-of-decay or is it
end-of-release
a143-4
------
waveforms:
sine (my favorite lfo waveform)
triangle
sawtooth with variable waveshape
pulse with variable waveshape
i know that the variable sawtooth includes
a triangle waveform, but i'd like to have
a dedicated triangle output too.
cv inputs for phase shift are also interesting,
but as long as we don't have attenuators for it,
the reset inputs are more practical. of course
cv inputs with attenuators would be great.
i have one question about the resolution of
the waveforms. will the waveforms be like
the smooth waves from an a145/a146/a147 or
will they be more like quantized waveforms,
because they are generated digitally
a152
----
this will be such a great module, the new features
are lovely. i have to say that i was never really
100% satisfied with the a150 and a151, so i hugely
appreciate the a152. can't wait to use it together
with the forthcoming vactrol phaser. but do 9 jacks
in height really fit into the front panel
(thinking about the a132/a150/a160/a180 ect.)
all the forthcoming modules are a sure shot for me,
i'm most excited about the a152, but the a143-1 and
a143-4 will also be very attractive modules.
regarding the other quad modules, i think these
are also very interesting and it looks like
they'll get some awesome features (thinking about
the quad adsr with "end of" trigger outputs),
which will turn them into a lot more than just
workhorses. i already know that i'll have no chance
to resist, so i guess i need another g6 frame soon.
best wishes
