stopping LFO modulation on 410 + OMS 410

2009-02-05 by Aaron Day

Hi all,

I am making an effort to re-discover my 410 + OMS 410.

I just realized that on my unit there is no way to reduce LFO "depth"  
to zero i.e. when the rate and depth controls are set to "0" there is  
still a very slow sweep. This was never an issue for me in the past  
when I wanted constantly evolving motion from the unit but now it is.

Ideally I'd like to control the 3 BPFs from the CV input of my OMS-410  
in a way that I can get reproducible settings.

Is this behavior normal or is there a build error in my 410 or oms410?

Yes, I think you have a problem there. I have two of the MOTM/OMS 410  
combos and both of them exhibit no change in frequency when the LFO  
depth pot drops below the 1.5 mark.

I agree with Scott. I have two MOTM 410s and both of them operate as
expected when you turn the Depth knob to zero, i.e. there is no audible
change in frequencies of the filters.

Adam, Scott,

To borrow Aaron Lanterman's term..... *facepalm*-->unplug the OMS  
unit...

Thanks for your responses. The problem isn't my MOTM its my OMS-410. I  
bought it from another listmember years ago and never used it much as  
there was a problem with the LFo connection. I now see that that isn't  
the only issue. I will contact Tony and see if he can help me.

best,
