Model 30 question answered

Model 30 question answered

2008-04-22 by (i think you can figure that out)

Yesterday Mark Landman posted a question  on the Model 30.  Phil Gallo's
reply  follows.

"When time allows, could you explain the different "patch"
configurations on the Model 30? I'm assuming they're different freq.
mod. algorithms, but am curious if they're linear or exponential. Even
better, if some audio exists it'd be nice to hear the Model 30 in
action."


External inputs to the module are understood as exponential (1 Volt per
Octave).  Internally when a VCO frequency modulates one of its companion
oscillators, the modulation is linear, through-zero.  When an oscillator
balanced modulates a companion, this occurs as linear amplitude
modulation.

Sound clips are the obvious next step to help describe this module and
are coming.
