hello list,

after all that chat about vco's, there is one thing i
really cannot understand.

the doepfer vco's (a110 and a111) have those rotary octave
switches and i find them very handy, because it keeps you
from tuning the vco again if you only want to transpose
the vco for two or three octaves in order to try something out.
but doepfer seems to be the only manufacturer who cares
about this feature. on the other vco's in my system
(analogue systems, blacet) there is no such switch
and i wonder why.

am i the only one who finds these octave switches useful
or would you say that it is a feature which is not that important
i know that it is no "must-have" feature for me, but it is
a "very nice to have" feature imho.

best wishes

ingo
