VCO-20 dual osc issue

Post by martb »

I just got the automatic update for the MS Vintage Bundle in VM - Many thanks for that CA :D
There is an issue with the dual oscillator though. On the gui/panel it shows a +/-5 semi tone range for the osc2 pitch control knob, when in fact it allows up to +/-12 semi tones.

Hi again,

It turns out that this is the way the original hardware worked. We've updated the documentation to clarify:

"The front panel of the original MS-20 is labeled -5 to +5, but its range was actually around an octave either way, so we've done the same here - VCO-20's detune range is just over an octave up or down."

Oh, ok - Thanks.
