2 Oscillators with 2 Mother 32s

Post by mcmullers » Sat Oct 01, 2016 4:40 am

Hello to all, hope somebody can help me


I have 2 mother 32s and would like what is the best way to use one of the 2 mothers as a second oscillator for the other one.

What is the best set up for this:

M32 # 2 VCA Out --> M32 # 1 Ext Autio
M32 # 1 KB Out --> M32 # 2 VCO 1V/OCT
M32 #1 Gate Out --> M32 2 Gate In


or instead of the main VCA Out use the VCO Saw or VCA Pulse Outs


When the Mix knob is hard panned to the left (M32 #1) does not sound exactly the same when the know is hard panned to the left (M32 #2)


Al settings are exactly the same on both mothers, what I want to hear is exactly the same sound when panned left or right.

Can you please advice.

Thank you very much
Adrián

Here's how I would do it:

1. On #2 turn the VCO Mode switch to On - this will allow the oscillator to run continuously
2. Patch VCO SAW or VCO PULSE OUT from #2 to EXT. AUDIO IN on #1
3. Patch KB OUT from #1 to VCO 1V/OCT IN on #2

That should do the trick. All of the filtering and amplification with happen on #1 and you get the second VCO from #2.

Hello there Mike

That did it, thanks so much.

No need to turn the VCA to On since the VCO SAW is before the VCA, a gate message triggers the sound.

Thanks again your help and taking the time to answer

Enjoy your evening

Ah, cool, I wasn't sure about the VCA so I metioned it just in case. Enjoy the dual oscillations!
