Peter,

Which output of the A-119 did you use We´ve got the audio out, the
envelope out and the gate out.
I suppose you took the gate out because otherwise the position of the
threshold pot would not influence the patch.
...but I´m not quite sure right now...
My first thought was like: Okay, as soon as the joystick is moved, a
voltage higher than threshold appears and a gate is being started. But I
forgot that even when the joystick is kept in one position, there still
is a voltage produced (except in center position ( )) and the gate of
the A-119 is still open.

So what is going on in this patch !! Indeed, really strange behavior ;-)

cheers,
Paul
