Voltage Controlled Low Frequency 2
Frequency; Freq Range (Low-Mid-High); Waveform (Triangle, Square); Shaping Select (Off, Aft, ModW).
Independent Send Modulations for: VCO 1, 2, 3 freq; PWM 1, 2, 3; VCF 24/12 Cutoff; VCA Level.
Sample & Hold
Frequency; Frequency Source (Int, VCLFO1); LED (red = Internal, blue = VCLFO1); S&H Source (Pink Noise, White Noise, VCLFO 1, LFO 2, VCO 1, 2, 3); Glide.
The S&H Clock can be routed to EG firing; there are three options: Off – no routing; Gate – the S&H clock is ANDed with keyb/ext/manual Gate; Auto – EGs always fired from S&H.
Tuning/MIDI
Master Tune; Portamento Time; Bend Amount; VCO 1 Portamento On/Off, VCO 1, Bend On/Off; Hold On/Off; A440 On/Off; Retrig On/Off; Manual Gate.
MIDI Interface: MIDI Channel Select; Keyboard Off Octave Offset; External CV In Octave Offset; MIDI Clock Divider on LFO Reset.
A4 receives: MIDI Note On/Off, Bend, Modulation, Aftertouch, Key Velocity, Expression Pedal, Damper.
Step Sequencer
User’s configurable Mode Select 8x2 or 16x1.
Clock Source: Int, VCLFO1, Ext, MIDI.
Clock Divider on all Clock Sources; dividing factor MIDI: 1/1, ¼, 1/4t, 1/8, 1/8t, 1/16; dividing factor TTL: 1/1, /2, /4, /16, /32.
Sequencer Mode: FW, BW, FW/BW, PNDL, ALT, RND, TRG.

Le petit frère du A8 arrive début 2012 !

Stop arrêter… je vais faire des cauchemars… En plus si on regarde le lien du 2eme post il y a une photos… avec une petite valise… et une rangée de… STOP

Regardez-moi ce beau travail ...

Aaaaah, on a fini, hein, de se moquer des italiens...

[Studiodragon]

Ben depuis '81 on peut plus se moquer, non ...

[Pierre]

Si j'ai bien compris la dernière vidéo, à part l'alimentation, toute l'électronique est sur les PCB derrière la face avant ?

Mais alors pourquoi faire un meuble aussi gros ? Il a pas prévu une version valise ? Assez plate, comme un attaché case...

[O-live]

j'adore le séquenceur ,l'instrument également y a t'il des utilisateurs dans la mare ?

[kris808]

J'attends le mien cette semaine!

[gouji]

Quelle tuerie ! Le son est incroyable de rugosité, le séquenceur pfff, j'en parle même pas ! ça me fait penser à une sorte d'hybride de Minimoog et d' ARP2600. En gros: THE claque !

[O-live]

hâte d'avoir des impressions en vrai par un membre de la mare

en attendant il ne reste qu'a baver

[kris808]

Je l'ai branché et commencé à tester 2 heures.
C'est du très bon. Je l'ai comparé en A/B avec le memorymoog+,( oscillateurs, filtre 24db), rien à envier du côté du gras.
En même temps c'est très précis aussi.

[Alexg]

J'ai regardé les videos.
Les modifs par rapport au A8 sont très judicieuses !
Et le côté moitié de A8 permet un budget + raisonnable.
Aujourd'hui je choisirais le A4 plutôt que son grand frère...

[kris808]

Au détour d'une petite session de programmation, je cherchais à faire un patch avec des modulations

[O-live]

effectivement
