[sdiy] CV questions..hardwiring

[Dan Snazelle]

oh and i forgot to mention...when i did it on the breadboard (connected one CV signal to a bunch of different places, i think i might have used a diode on the INPUT end to keep the other CV signals that were tied to that input from going back up the wire and into the other sections trying to get that same signal....

sounds confusing.

lets say i had a lfo out going to 3 places.

VCLFO OUT---------------------------diode----------vco cv in
                        -
                         -------------------diode-----------vclfo2 cv in
                         -
                          --------------------diode----------glide in


are the diodes necessary in the case where the glide and the vclfo also have some other signal plugged into that same input? if i had a sample and hold plugged into the same cv in input of the vco, i fear it would travel up the line and back out to the vclfo cv in or glide cv in. and then i would have no control over what got what for cv!!

the problem right now is it seems very unlikely that i would want to add all the opamps required to do this with buffers. for instance if i have 5 cv ins on average for each section, and there are at least 5 sections, that would be tons of opamps or transistors.....


hope this clarifies....


i am going to go get out my electronotes and see if i can find any info on this issue.
