Re: [Doepfer_a100] A-149-1 and A-149-2 -- digital or analog?

2012-05-02 by Martin Klang

As you can see in this [1] picture there's a PIC mcu on the board, from which you can draw your own conclusions.
I believe the Buchla SOU also uses a microcontroller to generate, store and quantise CVs.

Given the function, it follows that no part of the A-149 signal path (that is: no signal) can really be described as completely analogue.

So no, with your constraint, you can't have it. Too fun!

Can anyone explain (as I am having trouble getting my head around this) are the A-149-1 and A-149-2 completely analog in their function and construction, not just signal path?
