Re: Moog Voyager old school , cutoff acting as pitch
Are you saying that adjusting filter cutoff knob causes the pitch to change? That would be a pretty good trick since the OS doesn't have any kind of digital parameter control.

Re: A nice website for gear addicts
I went to the last page and saw some actual keyboardists. Lousy search mechanism, since anyone who plays keys as well as any other instrument shows up the list. There is no concept of "show me keyboardists who are not guitarists, bassists or drummers" for example

Off topic: It would be impossible for the moderators and site admin to determine whether or not people replying in HELP! are in fact expert enough to give reliable advice. For better or worse, when people volunteer advice you always get what you pay for.

Re: DX7 dual voice piano/pad
The original DX7 has 6 operators, so using an algorithm that with two carriers would allow creating layered sounds, such as a piano + pad. I'm no FM expert, so that's all I can tell you.
The DX7-II is bitimbral, so doing layers is simple.

It could be something as simple as the switch has failed. You bought this used?

Re: Help identifying grandfather's piece of equipment?
Very few real synths with built-in speakers. Roland did a couple based on the Juno 106 and Alpha Juno 2, Casio did the bizarre CZ-230. Do you mean it was made in the Northeastern US? Moog, ARP, EML, New England Digital (Synclavier) were located there but I can't recall anything that sounds like what...

Re: SH101 Help
You can't get MIDI out of the SH-101 with what you have. Your Kenton is what is called a MIDI-to-CV converter. In other words, it only converts MIDI to CV. It is not a CV-to-MIDI converter! CV to MIDI is a really difficult problem, because while MIDI has the idea of fixed pitch (a C1 is always a C1,...

Once someone figures out how to load demo sequences into an Eurorack module, we'll hear that damn song in every modular video on YouTube.

Re: Synthesisers: technology vs composition
The obsessive need for pitch perfect sequencers with randomizers, euclidean generation, probability, etc. might point to this. We may be in an era where new gear is created in an echo chamber with user feedback driving the ship rather than a singular designers vision. The trend towards random music...

Re: Synthesisers: technology vs composition
Probably 90% of the folks here and on other boards like Gearslutz are hobbyists. That's all. Why do people repeat formulas? Because that's what they are familiar with and like.
