Re: [korgpolyex] moog slayer pots

2006-04-06 by jure zitnik

yeah i did it yesterday and it's fine. the only thing i'll change is
to replace the resonance pot with a linear one. the lower half of
resonance range has practically zero effect and at ~3 o'clock it jumps
straight into self-oscillation.
anyone using a linear pot for resonance?

i also did the filter 2/4pole switch and i LOVE the 12db/oct response!
i like it TONS better than the original 24db/oct! i really recommend
that to everyone.

then i was trying to make DCO->VCF modulation but i found out that the
DCO outputs are offset by +5VDC or so... i kinda figured that out
without an oscilloscope - just with a multimeter and
wires->mixer->soundcard and trial and error. is that true? what's the
easiest way to drop that signal down 5VDC? i think it can make quite a
nice mod.

other things i'm looking at is modding the chorus LFO to make it
variable rate. marjan urekar wrote he did that. any ideas?

cheers,
jure
