RMC posted the following to the AH list. I asked him if it would be ok to post this and he gave me the all clear."All the MP3s or YouTube clips that I have found show the VCS3/A(KS) to be a brilliant sound effects device but not much in the way of musical demos.
Here's something like a bass line (257kB size) showing that you can get musical tones (albeit hampered by my hopeless playing, the KS keyboard and a bit of poor MP3 encoding): link
You'd best right-click the link and save it or go to the directory and save it from there; I don't think it will "stream" (3 VCOs as audio sources, some via the filter being swept by the env shaper, and then the reverb added too). I plan to do some more - maybe some leads if I can actually think to play anything.

It's like those transistors are humping each other.
ReplyDeleteThey're about to get a divorce ... replacement with an LM396 for better temperature stability of the VCOs.
