hello, ingo,
as far as i remember, the feedback loop(resonance)
that one can make with the modules you
mentioned(a1870, a138,vca) will sound ok, if you
replace the vca with the vc polarizer module a133. the
reason for this is that the resonance loop must have
an amplification rate of more than 1. so, instead of a
vca module(a131,a132) one should use a real VC
amplification module like the a133 which has a gain
rate of 2,5. dieter coprrect me if i'm wrong though.
best regards,
bakis.
