Doepfer A-107

Ever since I got my Doepfer system, I thought I was an idiot because all I could get out of the A-107 was rather bizarre, non-filter type noises.

Turns out it was knackered. Andy at EMIS has replaced it very promptly and I now have a working A-107. Yaaay!

And it's sweeet. I was a bit worried about buying this but the quality of the filters is lovely and the morphing possibilities mindbending.

I'll post an audio/video demo when I get some spare time!

All in all: A-107 thumb up

Will do, I'll try to get some done this week!

So, can you morph from a low pass to a high pass to some other weird kind of filter? Shocked

And it's analogue? This sounds really cool! Very Happy

I'm not really a modular guy - can a module be purchased and hooked up to other gear in a standalone kind of way (of course needing something able to send CV)? This looks like it might be worth it!

you need 4 things, some kind of case, some kind of power supply, some kind of power adapter (to plug into the wall) and a power bus.

...that gives me an idea... maybe I should create and sell cases for people who just want one or two modules... like Antimon.

I think Doepfer beat you to it, mate:

Yeah, I got two of these cases:

I'm not woodworker / geek enough to build my own so these were a good compromise on price for me.

I'd love to have one of these:

Hold your horses - you only asked yesterday!

arrite, here's my module list: http://modularsynth.net/post-12415.html#12415

let me know if you want sound demos on any modules I own. I'm just throwing it out there, thx!

That's very cool of you! thumb up

I should be able to get some studio time tomorrow, work permitting. I'll do some demos then, dude!

dood bravo! I finally get to hear this filter, I definitely like it. If only I didn't send it back to Noisebug... oh well. I'm happy with my decisions.

Jyoti · Posted: Wed Oct 15, 2008 4:49 pm Post subject:

Obviously, I haven't properly got into it yet. But the possibilities are quite amazing!

Good demos, Jyoti. Thanks for doing something that clearly demonstrates the filter itself- a bit of a rarity sometimes among demos. That thing sounds better than I ever imagined. Definitely versatile.

Cheers
Phil

Cheers, Phil! Yeah, I get frustrated with vids that only use the camera's crappy mics. Very hard to hear anything there. And then YouTube squashes the crap out of it too! Vimeo seems the place for good-quality stuff.

I'll do some more demos of other bits and bobs soon. Very Happy

you inspired me to want to do my own videos. I too hate youtube quality and camera mics.

Ahhh, I get you now! thumb up

Yep, that's why it's a single osc playing a simple pattern each time. I toyed with the idea of just sending white noise through but I thought that might be a little too dull. Very Happy

I think peeps in vids want to show how awesome they are at patching and while that's always fun, doesn't mean you get to experience the module on demo that well.

Hmmm... that's weird - they're looking fine here.
