Hello!

This might be a odd question for this list but im eager to gain
knowelege of this matter, i hope some of you have opened
your A6 for pure curiosity and when you where you might have
noticed the following i  ask for , OK here we go:

1:What kind of DAC are used for the CV channels?
 (manufacturer and number).

2:What kind of DAC/CV arragement does the A6 use?
 (The P5, Jupiter 8 way = plain 14 bit straight out to muxes?)
 (The OB Expander way= 14bit with hi/ lo settings for "teoretical"
 24 bit resolution?)
 (The ARP/Rhodes Chroma way= 8 Bit for ref voltage feeding the 12bit
  main DAC?)

3: Have Alesis implemented any hi/ lo charging muxing like the chroma
and xpander?

3:I asume Alesis did design the MUX buffers internally to the OSC and
   Filt chip, or im i wrong in this asuming?

Best regards
Tom Julian
