....doepfer did!

looks one or two of these might go very nicely with a bunch of foogers, and turn it into a true semi modular - moog knobs and wooden sides too

now, whose going to beat them to a great little sequencer?

I think it is lacking a filter Envelope.

Yup, but I was thinking the envelope out could go to an attennuator and the lag generator on the CP251 then into the fooger low pass - its not the same as a dedicated envelope but it might be nice?

omg that thing looks awesome, i love it! 400 EU huh? that's a steal, imo. The lack of a dedicated filter env is really not a big deal at all, a cp-251 or mf-101 would take care of that prob easily.

Quarter inch jacks?

I KNEW something was missing there! I couldn't put my finger on it, though. :lol: The FR Orb is a great looking and useful thing, but it too is designed primarily for MIDI. If I had an XS, like I want, the Orb would be a great thing.

That's true, but I think the point of the original poster was that lots of people were waiting for a 'fooger with ADSR and VCA, which this thing does have.

Anyway, all the details are here now:

My mistake! I should have gone to the Doepfer for the specs before posting. I just guessed by the picture and knowing that there other products are 1/8". I wonder if Doepfer CV is 5v +/- ? and are they using Moog protocol "TRS 1/4" to target Moog users?

I dunno. Modulars usually use 10-15vdc +/-. An attenuator would take care of that, though. :wink: And I'd be willing to bet that yes, they ARE trying to target Moog users.

luckily for moog we'll no doubt buy their VCA/EG when it comes out even if we do buy this Doepfer offering, and I must say I'm tempted by it. I have a lot of Doepfer stuff in my modular and while it doesn't quite have mooglike quality and charisma I must say that it is mostly very good indeed, especially for the low prices they charge for it.

This looks like a winner to me, there is also the possibilty to buy 2 or 3 and bolt them together, and internal jumpers to change the function of some of the outputs. not bad.
