that 2181 vca question

[JAY X]

Hi!

I'm starting using vca circuits. I draw a standard 2181 vca circuit from the douglas self small signal book.

I will attach mono jacks to all inputs and outputs.
My question is if the CV input should be AC coupled or not?

Thank you for your advise!!

..ask yourself: What would you want to use the CV input for..?

Hi Jakob!

Ok! now i start to understand...

If it is for just volume control with a pot and +/-15v... DC coupling.
If it is for modulating the VCA with an LFO... AC coupling.
