Hi
Well, I didn´t want to make a complete DX7 replica. You can get a
long way with just 2 VCO´s, with an EG and a VCA to control the
feedback/FM. I´ve tried that in Reaktor, but then again thats in the
virtual world. It would be great with real knobs.
Do you by "through zero" mean that it goes down to zero hertz and
then through to "negative" (phase reversed?) frequencies? (within
one cycle)
I realise this is probably not an easy design task. Just wishing :-)
greetings
Gregory

(using
