Hi Trevor,
owning an Animal and a TKB, here is my recommendation for your one synth pa=
nel. I'd get
a modified Animal, in which the UAP has been replaced with an NCOM and an X=
FAD.
I am not so keen on VC panning, so I think I could do with just VC crossfad=
ing (and level
control, of course). In addition, the NCOM should be nicely useable as a vo=
ltage controlled
divider if you are looking to generate exact rhythm relationships between d=
ifferent steps
with a TKB or TENV using one row of the TKB/TENV to control the divison o=
f the clock
clocking the TKB/TENV.
Right now I am using one half of my DTG for voltage-controlled divison, I a=
m glad that it is
possible at all (cheers to the patch programmability!), but I'd rather have=
an Animal with
NCOM/XFAD instead of UAP.
Of course, all subjective. If you are not interested in achieving exact rhy=
thmic
relationships, but can not live without VC panning, all the above makes no =
sense :-)
Best regards,
Jan-Hinnerk
