AngryOctopus Webotron Updated With Input from Monotron Designer

AngryOctopus, wrote in to let me know he heard from the designer of thew new KORG Monotron. He actually received some tips on how it works. +1 for KORG. You can find the updated version here. There is now QWERTY keyboard support so you can play with your keyboard. I had to click on a note first to get it to work, but it does work fine.

Some notes on the Monotron:
- filter doesn’t sound nearly as aggressive at maximum peak.
- LFO is slower at minimum (about 15s period) and faster at maximum (>1kHz).
- monotron resets the LFO at the moment the ribbon is touched, so it
works like a simple cycling EG at slow LFO rates.
- monotron has fixed intensity keytrack. cutoff tracks ribbon position
by factor of two. only tracks ribbon not pitch knob.

follow-up to this post. Remember you can search on Monotron here to find all posts mentioning the new device, including videos, details, comments, pics and more.

  2. False alarm, it was actually the left channel on my amp that blew. Which is slightly better, because it's just a cheap amp ;D
