 1V/Octave Adjustment

The VCO is already carefully adjusted to 1V/Oct. If you 
realize that the XR22 VCO FT isn't in tune with your 
other analog synthesizer equipment, it may be 
necessary to adjust it.

Procedure

 (Suggestion):

1.

Switch on your equipment and the XR22 VCO 
FT and wait 1/4 hour until the oscillator have 
the right temperature.

2.

 Put range switch   in right position 'Mid'. 
Adjust F1 & F2 knobs    &   to ≈ middle 
position (≈ 3 - 5 on scale)

3.

Connect a CV from a keyboard (or a similar CV 
source) both to your favorite VCO's 1V/oct. 
input and to the XR22 VCO F1/com 1V/oct. 
input   . Put switch "com"   and switch "FSK"

 in upper position ("F1").

4.

Play a note on your keyboard in the middle 
range, e.g. "c", or "c1". The note should be 

nearby to the tone you have adjusted on the XR22.

5.

Adjust pot "F1"   and fine tuning   until the pitch of the XR22 is the same like that of  the 2

nd

  

VCO.

6.

Play a note ≈ 2 - 3 octaves higher. Adjust trimmer "F1 1V/oct" (see above) until the XR22 VCO is 
tracking to the 2

nd

 VCO.

7.

Go back to step "4" and repeat all other steps until both oscillators are in tune.

8.

Repeat the same procedure with "F2" (with "FSK"

Alternatively, you can use the 1V/Oct input F1/com   for F2, too. Put switch 'com'   in lower 
position and the 1V/Oct input F1/com   is now working for both FSK frequencies. Put FSK

with the external keyboard/VCO.

Jumper "JP1" in "on" position (on PCB): The Bus CV is controlling the XR22 VCO's frequencies.

Jumper "JP1" in "off" position (on PCB): The Bus CV is not connected.
