a few questions

1999-07-19 by mark scetta

so i am wondering....

besides a synth's kb or midi-to-cv unit, what else can produce a gate &
trigger signal that i can use to drive my motm-800?

my controlling keyboard, a jupiter 8, has only CV and gate outs. can a
trigger signal be 'extracted' from the gate signal (they both start off the
same (with a voltage 'pulse'), right?) so that i can use the gate *and*
trigger with my motm-800 (gaining full ADSR functionality)?

is there a way, using currently available motm modules, to take in an audio
signal and output a voltage based on the audio signal's amplitude? (like an
envelope follower)

thanks,
mark

Mark,

Look back in the archives for a simple 1 wire addition to your MOTM-800 to
gain full ADSR functionality from a GATE only input. You tap off a resistor
on the circuit board and run it to the Trigger jack's 3rd lug. If you plug a
trigger signal into the trigger jack, it works just like before. Many of us
have done this mod.

If you do this mod, then you can trigger your 800 from a VCO or LFO pulse
wave output for repeating rhythms, or from any standard synth gate signal
(including the Jupe).

Where does one find these archives?
