If you are going to add numbers, they should go from zero to 10 (or whatever voltage its effect approximates), not -5 to +5. A negative amount of shift makes absolutely no sense, based on what I've read so far. Also, does the Fine Shift approach zero towards the center of its rotation?? If is does you might want to add a "-" and "+" to each side, and perhaps a "0" in the middle to reflect that. If not, then I think there should be some indication that fully counter-clockwise is the least offset -- perhaps a "0" on the left side and and whatever voltage it approximates on the right side. My understanding of module's function is that it shifts by greater exponential frequencies as the summed voltage (CV In, Initial Fine, Fine Shift) increases, and that a negaative voltage sum would be ignored. Otoh, if you have it so that negative voltages actually swap the Up and Down outputs, then you have something unique :) On 12/8/03, Tony Karavidas put forth: >Hi all, > >By now I think most of you (that care) have seen this picture: > >http://www.encoreelectronics.com/FS/FreqShift_Proto4c.jpg > >What I'd like to know is do you like the look of the above picture with no >numbers, or would you prefer the one below with +/- numbers around the >Initial shift knob?
