Thank you for your input. I got some mail too. Here are more
questions:
- I couldn't figure out, if a DC coupled VCA with exponential
response is available by Serge? I would need one despite the fact
that Serge envelopes have selectable curves. (Modcan A series VCA:s
are linear. Their B series 13B has lin/expo switches. So does my
Cwejman VCA-2P, excpet that they are labeled "lin/log".)
- Are the blue jacks DC coupled and black jacks AC coupled?
- Regarding PWM, I realize that there are many ways to get a
rectangle waveform from a Serge system. However, one might suspect,
that using comparators and other auxiliary "tricks" might compromise
sound quality. Could it be argued, that for "classic" PWM sound with
good tracking I should rather go for a Modcan A oscillator? It
outputs only 5V peak to peak though. Would that be a drawback?
- Are NTO and PCO the only Serge oscillators with excellent tracking?
It is good to hear, that another banana system might come out. I wish
someone would make Serge-like 4U individual modules: As I am used to
Eurorack, 6U Modcan and Cynthia modules seem sexy but too big. Also,
I simply like to change and reconfigure my modules. That is why
the "Serge philosophy" of full or half panels doesn't seem appealing
to me.
