Q:
I have an MF-102 ring modulator. When I play quietly, the notes cut off before they die out completely. Is this normal?
 
A:
Yes. The MF-102 has a squelch circuit that minimizes the bleed through of the carrier oscillator. As the squelch circuit kicks in, it can audibly effect the decay of the note. This can be minimized by feeding the MF-102 as hot a signal as possible.
