Re: [korg_mono-poly] modulation expansion kit for the korg mono/poly

Hi Florain thanks for taking a look at me ideas.

The phase sync is the same idea you have just suggestedwhere I'm triggering the sync from the gate signal.  Of coursethere are a few hoops you need to jump through to make the gate signal suitable for this action.

Here is an early recording of phase sync in action.
It has since been refined towork along with the original hard synceffect.

here is a bass line recording.

The wide range detune feature sounds like it will be very doable.  thanks for the tip  :)

Hello Alan

great ideas!

I'd use VCO4. Because you cannot detune VCO1 and you want to tune the 
modulationspeed for sure.

Again: Why VCO1? Use VCO4.

I'd suggest also a "wide-range" option for the tune potentiometer of 
VCO4 (decrease R130 240k -> 22k or even less).

> 7: Phase sync on all oscillators.
How would you achieve it technically?

And another idea: A sync pulse from Gate to all VCOs. This resets the 
VCOs on each note and assures, that bassnotes always starte at the same 
phase with all oscillators, even if the VCOs then are free running.

You may add my mods too.
