hello all,

first, a merry christmas to everybody :-)

the a188/1 is a very exciting module, especially
because it is not limited to standard flanger,
chorus or reverb effects.

i have prepared some examples, recorded directly from the
output jack of the prototype (using a 1024 stages bbd ic).
sorry for the brief descriptions.
oh well, it's christmas... :-)

1.
karplus-strong synthesis, based on the example patch
as published on the doepfer homepage. this is an
example for plucked sounds.

2.
a single a110 sawtooth through the a188/1, delay time modulated
by a triangle lfo.

3.
a single a110 squarewave through the a188/1,
no delay time modulation, but obscure parameter values ;-)

this is a self-oscillating a188/1, the module gets no
audio input. the delay time is modulated by an a149/1.

5.
now my favorite. a drum pattern coming from a tr808
is fed into an a119 and from there into the a188/1.
the a119 env output is fed into the a188/1 cv in 2.
both delay time and cv 2 polarizer knobs were slowly
adjusted by hand during recording, to give an idea of
the sonic potential. in the beginning it sounds like
flanging, with decreasing clock frequency it falls into
a mixture of granular synthesis and bit-reduction.
the signal seems to fall apart and then rebuilds under
rhythmic control of the 808 signal level.
halfways through the recording the a188/1 audio input
attenuator is turned further clockwise for some
overdriven sounds.

have fun everybody :-)
