Hello,

Could you please set the clamp on the output as optional?

Thank you!

Hello,

could you, please, specify which module you have in mind?

But, in general, I am not a big fan of not clamping the values, as I think modules should be written in a way, that they could be an emulation of some hardware module. And in hardware, you definitely would have the claming to +- 12V in the extreme, most likely values smaller than the rail-to-rail voltage. (Have a look at https://vcvrack.com/manual/VoltageStandards).

If there is a good reason to remove the clamping in a particular module, it is not a big issue.

Cheers, Martin

Hello,

Sorry for not mentioning the module name. The module I have in mind is "Cloner". I think that removing the clamp has some relevance because of the "Spread" function.

Did you know that even the VCV noise itself goes much beyond +/-10V? It reaches at least 18V.

Thank you for considering my request.

Best regards.

Sorry for the long silence. The upcoming release will have a right-click menu option to disable the clamping.
