Prophet 600 Noise Source Modification

Image
So, I modified my  Prophet 600  to have a noise source, with a level parameter that is storable with a patch. I was inspired by a Japanese  Prophet 600  mod I saw online a while back. He documented what he did very well.  http://prophet-600.blogspot.com/2014/09/prophet-600-adding-noise-waveform.html The goals were as follows: 1) Modify the GliGli FW to add a noise source using what was the external filter CV input  2) rewire the external filter CV so I still have an external filter CV and it no longer goes thru U458 (CEM 3360) 3) build a hardware noise source run it through U458 which is under software control, accessible using "To tape" and pressing 0 twice ("To tape 0 twice" is/was a duplicate arpeggio speed control.) So here is where I'm at: 1) The code is done and works. I can save and recall the Noise parameter and the code controls U458 to make the noise level settable by the front panel. The code I modified so far seems stable. 2)  I cut a trace...

Gligli P600 Noise Mod V2.26 JRS Overview

Image
Gligli P600 Noise mod V2.26B JRS: https://github.com/matrix12x/p600fw/...717999ed60cf98 History ======= - all revisions based on Gligli V2.1 RC3 - V2.20 JS - added noise mod and new LFO waveforms step8, seq, RevSaw - V2.21 JS - added new LFO waveforms step4 - V2.22 JS - added 4bit Triangle and 6bit Sine - V2.23 JS - fixed patch compatibility bug introduced in V 2.22 - V2.24 JS - reverted polymod bug to RC1 behavior - V2.25 JS - added new vibrato waveforms and Vibrato targets - V2.26B JS - fixed post “Tune” volume bug introduced in V2.25 V2.25 includes - LFO has 6 new waveforms: Step8, RevSaw, Seq, Step4, Bit_Tri, Bit_Sine New Pitch Bender targets:PW(VCO A), and VCO B only New noise source setting control. Pressing "to tape" 0 a second time lets you adjust the VCF CV input level and store it with a patch. I modified my P600 to add a noise source and use this parameter to adjust the noise source per patch, hence in the UI this displays as "noise". However, in an u...

Prophet 600 Poly Mod VCO B to modulate VCO A

Image
So, I don't like how the Prophet 600's VCO A changes in pitch (not just timbre) when using Poly Mod VCO B to modulate the pitch of VCO A even on the original factory OS. It is not a software thing, it's the hardware itself.  The circuit that feeds VCO B's output to the CV input of VCO A is not AC coupled (it does not have a DC blocking cap). Thus a DC offset is introduced which changes the tuning of VCO A by raising the pitch. I hate this. I never use Poly Mod VCO B to modulate the pitch of VCO A.  I held down a single note with Saw wave selected on VCO A and VCO B was zero volume. No  Poly Mod . Here I added some FM (frequency modulation) to VCO A (Saw wave) in an unmodified Prophet 600 by using Poly Mod VCO B to VCO A frequency. If you look at the fundamental, it goes up in frequency relative to the first image. My thought were to mod the Prophet 600 to add a DC blocking cap, for example between the 4061 (e.g., U429 pin 1) and the CV in (pin 15) for ...
