Subject: RE: More VCA blabbering

Yes, yes: we never want to use that word in connection with MOTM. "More
efficient" and "cost effective" would be acceptable. I stand corrected.

Yeah, when you talk about "expo" & "linear," it can get confusing. I always
like to talk about synthesizer functions as being "exponential _response_"
or "linear _repsonse_," because that makes clearer what aspect of the
connection is being discussed.

So an MOTM VCA is a linear response module, responding linearly to
exponential CV, whereas the VCO is exponential response to a linear CV.

Right, the MOTM way. But instead of cheaper, I'll
substitute "more
efficient." :)

... I am calling the MOTM-110 CV input expo since that is
the voltage it expects even though the VCA response is linear. Should I be
saying that different?
