*** My Email crashed as I was sending this yesterday morning. If you've already received it, please excuse the repeat. I checked the archives, but it did not appear with yesterday's postings. JT Since I hold some of you gentlemen responsible for my current situation, I think it's only fair that I post these questions to the list. I will soon be adding a 2nd patchbay to my little home studio. While working on diagrams of possible configur- ations for my equipment, I have come to the conclusion that I am no longer (if I ever was) a "normal" kind of guy. I have been effectively "denormaled" by my association with Loopers Delight. I'm looping with the Echoplex & the Vortex. I'm even doing it on my Digitech 2101 and 2112. Now try to work into the equation the rack power amp, compressor, mixer channel ins & outs & effects sends & returns, etc. I just want to have complete flexibility as to who's on first, who's on second. While working on patchbay configurations, it occurred to me that, to this point, all of my patchbay connec- tions have been strictly for audio, even though a lot of my equipment has back panel inputs for cv/exp pedals, sync connections, footswitches, what have you. Is it advisable to use a patchbay for these types of connections? There was an article in EM a while back on patchbays, but I don't recall seeing anything like this in their setup examples. I would be using a balanced, 1/4", denormaled patchbay. At the very least, I'm wondering if it might cause interference with adjacent audio connections, or at worst, cause an unpleasant aroma. Any guidance is appreciated. BONUS QUESTION*** Would any of you care to comment on the Waldorf Pulse Plus synth? Rack mount, mono, analogue synth with built in cv/gate interface, audio in for filtering external audio. It appears that you can route the LFO to the #2 CV output to modulate other equipment with cv inputs. The LFO has sine, tri, saw (up ramp), pulse, & random waveforms. The LFO has a slow speed of 0.0008 Hz (1 cycle every 2 minutes) up to a fast rate of 261.6 Hz. I was led to this in a very round about way thanks to links provided by David Coffin, who was responding to my earlier inquiry about external LFOs. Dave provided the link to Kenton Electronics, which led to the Analogue Heaven Mail Archives, which led me to peruse back issues of Keyboard magazine where I found a review of the Waldorf. Playing guitar used to be easier than this. I did my duty and emailed Opcode, how about you? John === John Tidwell _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
