Doesn't that conflict with the need to set the LFO sync mode to "MIDI"?

I meant, try getting it as close as possible to the correct "start point" using tap tempo, then switch on the sync function. I don't know if it would work, just a thought.

The LFO sync is one thing (that works fine), but the LFO cycle start position is not synced with my daw's bar start position. Hmm, OK I see what you mean now. When it syncs up, the cycle of the wave could be at any point depending on where it was in the "free running" mode. What you need ...

The "ring mod" tremolo I and my close group of friends have always used and I guess always associate with it's primary function is based off the audio range interference... I'd like to hear an example of what you are talking about. I think we both understand how it works, we're just using...

The OS 2.0 software update adds the LFO sync feature.

You have a Tribute Edition? Apparently those models require a hardware update in order to use the new OS.
This page has the info you need regarding the upgrade:

Translation:

4 quadrant multiplier: responds to both positive and negative voltage.

2 quadrant multiplier: only responds to positive voltage. Will treat negative voltage as "zero".

Matt, Everything you describe is correct, and all of that happens when the carrier signal is up in the "audio range" (i.e. sounds our ears can hear, typically 40hz and above). This is the definition of a ring mod effect, and it is how all ring mods work. However, it IS true that what is te...

I understand that the tremolo is done by some sort of sound cancelation - not simply by modulating the output volume Actually, it IS that simple. The internal oscillator on the MF-102 is being used to modulate the amplitude (volume) of your input signal. When the rate of the oscillator is up in the...

My area of doubt is whether I would benefit much from adding a standalone VCA module. Surprise! You've already got one: the MF-102. A Ring Modulator is essentially a voltage-controlled amplifier, one that responds to both positive and negative voltage (a normal VCA only responds to positive voltage...

You shouldn't run into any issues. They'll work great together. DotCom is a better choice than EuroRack because all your stuff will be 1/4" plugs. If you haven't come across STG modules before, I'd also suggest checking them out. All of his "MU" format stuff is compatible with a DotCo...

Check out the PEEP from Devi Ever:

$35. Sure, you can build one cheaper. But for anyone else who doesn't own a soldering iron, it's pretty cheap.

I got my LP Stage (original) w/the Moog hard shell flight case for $750 total on Ebay. I thought about selling the case and making the deal even cheaper, but it is a really nice case and could come in handy.

My used FreqBox was $199. Found it on http://www.musicgoround.com/

Hell yeah. Voyager OS and a Pro-One. Nice combo.

I use my Korg Electribe ES-1 sampler to trigger the FreqBox's envelope follower, then send that signal wherever (most often to control a filter). A while ago I started thinking about ways to get a more traditional ADSR type envelope shape when using the follower circuit. Since it responds to volume,...

Is the envelope out the amplitude envelope or the frequecy envelope? If it the amplitude then I can already get this from the low pass filter fooger but if its the frequency evelope, that might be very useful. They are the same thing. Think of the CV signal at the ENV OUT jack as just a copy of the...
