I definitely consider this too short, I suggest you contact robertlanger, there might be something wrong with your LOPAG. |

Can you post a recording ? LPGs can sound different from each other, but it shouldn't be imperceptibly short. When I hit my LOPAG with a trigger, the sounds lasts probably around half a second.
Just so that we are on the same page, do you plug it this way : Sound source > IN Trigger > TRIG Asking because it sounds like you might send the trigger to IN.
So this is a recording of the trigger input and the gate input (which works a little better!) fed by a TRIQ164 filtering the sound of a sawtooth VCO - I think there could be something wrong with my module possibly - or I'm doing something wrong! Here's a photo of the patch too: View AttachmentView AttachmentI think I see the issue here with your patching (judging from the images you've shown). You seem to be using the ENV to go into the TRIQ64, if I am reading the images correctly? That may well be "feeding" the clock timing of the TRIQ64, but all you're getting out the other end is the short TRIG signal. It SHOULD sound like just a click because that's all that's happening - a VERY quick pulse on and off. You would require a LONGER term trigger signal that stays on for longer (obviously). So either have the TRIQ64 freely running on it's own (you could have the NOISE module connected to the CLK input, or if the speed is too fast, you can first route it through the BEAT DIVIDER), and then have that triggering the ENV, then the output of the ENV into the TRIG input of the LOPAG. You don't really need the TRIQ64 at all, as you can simply omit it and the ENV and use an LFO instead. Or the LFO to trigger the ENV and then have that trigger the LOPAG. I hope you get what I mean, and I hope I've read it correctly. If not, then forgive my silliness. |

Right, I might have misunderstood the module - when I read trigger I thought it meant a literal trigger signal like from the TRIQ164, and had some sort of a built in envelope? If not then that makes complete sense - I'll give it a whirl later and see. Fingers crossed! Thanks a lot for the tip! |

Oh - and it's the LFO to the TRIQ164, not an env! I can see why it looks that way though.

Anyone know if the LOPAG uses vactrol in both LPG and VCA modes? To my ears the VCA setting has a more natural sound than a regular VCA patched to a fast attack/decay, so i'm thinking yes, but i could equally be imagining it  |

On a different note I'd kill for a quad (or dual if quad is too greedy) low pass gate.

There will be differences in the circuits between the regular VCAs and the LOPAG, so don't think you are imagining anything, |
