MOTM-130 details (?)

MOTM-130 details (?)

It is an input. The LINK system internally adds the audio from OUT 1
to whatever is plugged into LINK, then routes it to OUT 2's final stage
(post-VCA function).

Now, everyone ponder why this is cool :)

The attenuator is on the LIN side, just like the '110. Ran out of panel
space :(

PAN - Audio is in IN 1. CV pans from OUT 1 to OUT 2.

FADE - Audio into IN 1 and IN 2. CV then FADEs from IN 1 to IN 2, audio
output on OUT 2. <hint hint>

GAIN #2 is manual PAN/FADE control, which is added to CV LIN #2 as PAN/FADE
CV.


Oh, forgot to mention: the 2 VCA output stages have "soft clipping" for more
interesting over-drive sounds.
Tube-u-lar!!

audio output on OUT 2. <hint hint>

is anythin' output through OUT1 in fade mode?
just curious,

Hint: Sounds like it can do panning and fading at the same time.

So you don't lose an input on your (post 130) output mixer?
Link is a mixing input for OUT 2 which is independent of any VC input? (Paul
feels a bit guilty that we'll want to buy two mixers for each 130 in order to
mix all the CVs and the signals into it -- but only a bit)
