well shit. i got some good modules today but my doepfer octal vca cant get my plaits clone to my mixer module when it gets an input from pams, the mixer just doesnt send anything out, and when i send it in from the vca theres lots of noise. it sounds fine when it goes through the minibrute vca though. what's going on? am i doing something wrong with my vca?


a bit more detail. i tried to send an envelope from pamelas new workout to the cv in of the octal vca, so that the audio from plaits would go to my mixer module(behringer cp3a-m), but i got no sound when i did.


Sorry to hear that! It sounds like you're running into a couple issues: 1) no sound comes out of your mixer 2) the octal vca signal is noisy. For the octal vca, it's possible it just operates with a little more noise bleed than the minibrute vca. Is it the same amount of noise in different channels? For the behringer mixer, have you tried running the minibrute oscillator or another sound source into the mixer?
