You wouldn't use it for an LFO because the CV input on the VCOs would be
unattenuated. For that purpose you'd use multiples. The purpose of the 185
is to send gates to multiple EGs or a common unattenuated CV to a maximum,
probably, of 2 VCOs, e.g. from a sequencer or keyboard. The affected
modules need to be on the same row, or you'll need a little cable that
connects the buses for two rows.

Subject: 1 A-185

I was looking around on the Doepfer site and I noticed the a185 Bus Access
module. I'm not clear on what it does. If I send my Doepfer lfo to a bunch
of different sources, will the signal somehow degrade I have a Doepfer
suitcase system and I'm always sending the cv's to a multiple and then off
to other places in the Doepfer system and to my other racks of Blacet/Wiard
modules. I haven't noticed that this is a problem, but I'm not always very
scientific about analyzing my patches.

As my modular grows will I need the a185

Thanks for any advice.

Bryan
