Does the Avalon have CV output from its internal sequencer? If so, measure the CV output to see if it matches the TB303 output or if = the Avalon CV generator is limited. You could either use a Volt meter or = just plug it into a known, good VCO (other than the Avalon, which is = clearly suspect). My untested hunch is that the Avalon VCO is totally analog and can = handle the high CV and reproduce the pitch, but the internal CV = generation can=E2=80=99t actually recreate the same voltages that the = TB303 is generating. Not sure why unless it=E2=80=99s going above 5 V, = which is a typical limit for a DAC without calibrated gain. A VCO = wouldn=E2=80=99t necessarily have a 5 V limit on its 1V/oct CV input, = especially not if it=E2=80=99s running on +/-10 V or higher rails.
