Thanks a lot for any of your responses!
@Tim, even though I had an older threat in in mind I was puzzled
about the module. You're right: reading the manual makes a
difference. However, still the almost non existing effect on any VCO
waveforms make me wonder wether this partic. module works as it
fellow A136s or not.
Unfortunately I didn't gave it no try on CVs. Regards, Ingo
(@Ingo thanks for your offer, I'll get back on you later. I've hardly
access to net at the moment.)
