RE: micro VCA? ring mod users?

2000-02-08 by David Bivins

Thanks Dave and Dave,

The frustrating thing about using my Mackie (1604vlz) aux sends to "heat up"
my signals is that the top gain is from aux 1 and 2, and they're the only
two with prefader settings. Grrr. I like to keep those for other effects,
but I often have to sacrifice one or both just because their top end is
higher (I think that's true, having looked at the specs again recently).

Anyway, I'm thinking of a couple other things to try with it. Firstly, I
still have that HP function generator that's plenty hot. I just have to
build a new cable to connect it. Secondly, I just purchased an old, big
"audio generator" with unknown output voltage--I'm hoping to use that as an
audio modulation source for real-time sweeps (well, same purpose as the
function generator).

Thanks for the input. I'll work on it :) And as soon as I figure out how I'm
casing more modules now that my other case is full, maybe I'll think about
getting a couple oscillators!

David.
