Andromeda A6 - USING VOICE 15/16 AS A SCHMITT TRIGGER
The following came in via Eduardo on the A6 list. Just putting it up as an FYI and something to try one of these days on the A6. As the warning at the end of this says, be careful and refer to the manual. The following is from the A6 Tip and Tricks. It's a good place to check out what the A6 is capable of.
"22.25 USING VOICE 15/16 AS A SCHMITT TRIGGER:
(trigger envelopes, audio, etc.)
These are listed as “KEY TRIGGER 1” and “KEY TRIGGER 2” in the trigger menu. Trigger LFOs, envelopes, etc. from an external source!
Schmitt triggers are level detectors that fire a trigger whenever the set threshold is detected as having been passed.
From Mike Peake:
Is anyone using the two discrete Schmitt Triggers on the Voice 15 and Voice 16 External Audio Inputs? :-) They can be used to Trigger anything triggerable in a Program regardless of whether you use the associated audio. Funnn...
(more hints in an earlier post)
There are Schmitt Triggers on the Voice 15 and Voice 16 External Audio input jacks that are scanned and sent to the mod source list ("EXT TRIGGER 1", EXT TRIGGER 2"). Schmitt Triggers are level detectors that fire a trigger whenever the set threshold is detected as having been passed. User Programs 124 and 126 demonstrate this parameter :) Note that it's just a level threshold; you set the level of your source to trigger the envelopes along with the beat. You don't get dynamic depth control, but yes, if you have an envelope follower of your own that you can patch into the FILTER External CV Input, you can also dynamically control the Fc along with the enveloping. I don't remember offhand if the CC Pedal input is resistive or voltage. If it's voltage, it will probably be a 12-bit scan and could then be used as an assignalbe modulation source which would allow you to dynamically control the Filter Envelope's depth...
READ THE MANUAL AND FIND OUT IF THIS IS RECOMMENDED OR NOT BEFORE ACTUALLY SENDING DC VOLTAGE INTO THIS JACK--- IF IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED YOU COULD DAMAGE THE UNIT AND THIS IS PROBABLY NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. I TOLD YOU TO LOOK TO SEE BEFORE TRYING THIS.

Richard Lainhart to Play Moogfest 2007
"I'm pleased and proud to announce that I will be performing with Jordan Rudess at this year's Moogfest (http://www.moogfest.net) on September 22 at B. B. King's in New York City!
What's more, I'll be bringing my new Buchla 200e/Continuum (http://www.otownmedia.com/he/buchla.htm) system to the land of the Moog for the first time.
Performers include Thomas Dolby, T Lavitz, Don Preston, Adam Holzman, Gershon Kingsley, Herb Deutsch, and many other pioneers and practitioners of the art of Moog synthesis, so it should be an evening of diverse and exciting music. I hope to see you there."

TBS-303
Click here for a couple more shots via this auction.
"(this website has real audio files of the SYNTH)
- Internally the analog circuits are identical to Rolands original design
(same component types, topology, 18dB/oct resonance filter etc.) There are
no IC's used to simplify the design!
- The Mark II version has a revised MIDI interface for better control and
for example user selectable MIDI channel.
- The TBS303 is on purpose build in a desktop type housing to make real
time control by hand, better (just like the original!)"
