Dear All,
In the light of the recent requests of examples of the old and new
filters and Ingo's helpful responses to this, I have also uploaded
some clips on the A-102/109/121/124
A simple A-110 (saw)/115 was used as input and LFO's were used for
sweeping of VCF, Pan, and Q (if available). manual Q sweeps were
applied to the A-102/124
let me know if you think these examples are useful or not
(In the latter case, I will ofcourse remove them ASAP)
best regards
Joost
