Subject: Re: [motm] Quad Quantizer: need your inputs

Back in Dec. 2005 there was discussion about a new MOTM-102 noise
generator. We discussed adding ASR and quantizing to that module. The
general consensus was that the 102 should not have quantizing, just
noise and ASR to make it fit into 1U. I'd still like to see that
MOTM-102.
In that light, the new quantizer should not have ASR. But it must
have voltage control to select the scale. I currently use miniwaves
for quantizing and I use the bank/wave control inputs to change the
scale a lot. I like your idea of putting four quantizers into one
module, that will free up the miniwaves for other uses, but without a
means to change the scale under voltage control, it's of no use to me.
Minimum requirements:
1. four rotary encoders for setting the initial scale
2. four input jacks (quanitize input)
3. four output jacks (quantize output)
4. four for selecting scale under voltage control
5. four jacks that generate a pulse whenever the outputs change
(Richard Brewster's suggestion)
I don't think you'll be able to fit any more into 2U.
