normalization (was Re: [sdiy] Banana vs. 1/4" question)

Fri Apr 18 16:27:34 CEST 2003

Switching only at the input jack... if you patch there it
disconnects the normalled CV

I'd normal

KBD CV to each VCO
an EG to each VCF and VCA
one LFO to each VCO
one LFO to the VCF
VCF output to VCA input

and maybe some VCO waves to VCF inputs... but
only with attenuators on the VCF inputs. Ideally
I'd have rotary or toggle switches to select waves
into the VCF... or a mixer

Subject: normalization (was Re: [sdiy] Banana vs. 1/4" question)

>hello. i'm new here and a bit of a newbie to the diy thing. the discussion of banana vs 1/4" (or 1/8") mentioned the benefits of normalization. i know this much about normalization: using a switched jack to disconnect the hardwired path and route it elsewhere. however i don't know too much after that. i am building an efm modular with 2vcos 1vcf, 2lfos, 2eg, 2vca, noise. what would be the most 'standard' way to route these modules in a normalized setting? i'm thinking something like the system 100 or ms-20. when making the normalized patch, is the switched jack at both the in and out or just the in?
