Hello, I'm quite new in this forum but I owned my modular since a loooooong time. Please be patient with my poor english.

PC: Windows XP, Interface DDD Midilink

Yesterday I want to setup a new patch with filter-FM and so I choose the modules:
Keyboard Voice, OSC (B) as modulator, VCF Classic, ADSR and Output 2Ch

I made the raw connections and set the resonance high at the VCF so that the resonance-frequency sounds loud an clear.

When I pull any other module to the Desktop now, the sound stopps and will not start again. The VCF-resonance stopps! If i route the VCO to output, all works fine, even the resonance while a signal is at VCF IN.
But no self-resonance anymore. So I cannot choose more modules while patching or I must stop the self-oscillation of the VCF before or i must restart with NEW

Anyone, who knows this effect? Any hints?

Analog filters can kick into self-oscillation by themselves because there is always a small amount of residual noise in the analog circuit.

Digital filters won't do that. Even with resonance at max, they at least need to be spiked (one short impulse) in order to oscillate.

If I need a self-oscillating filter on the G2, I spike it at patch load (with the "patch active" pulse from the status module) or feed a little bit of white noise into it (analog to the analog Mr. Green scenario).
