Right

Yes.
But all oxygens are that bunky because their keyboards don't generate
aftertouch data ;-)

hi guys:)
does any of you knobtwiddlers ever played with a
polymorph?
read some and liked what i read..and it looks like i
can get one cheep.
4x16 rows of seqs that one can set to indipendent
speed(32/16/8/4) and independent CC# and
that...rocks!!
but never heard one live.
so can someone that worked with it give hint on how it
sounds...??

It sounds very "Quasimidi". It won't fool you into thinking its an 
analog but it does have some nice sound shaping facilities. The best 
feature is that one of the OSCs has a number of sampled waveforms 
available which makes it very good a pad-like sounds. The other two OSC 
are more in a analog modeling vein though they aren't as good as say a 
Virus's.

The filters are OK. The one glaring weakness is in modulation 
resources, if you do not factor in the sequencer. The LFO, EGs, and mod 
routings are pretty slim. But...

The ability to assign sequencer lines to any synth parameter really 
makes this have some great sonic possibilities. The sequencer is one of 
the better analog-like implementations with some good performance 
features. You can even use it to control external gear, including 
sending CC's.

I still like mine mainly for the sequencer. Four independent 16x4 step 
sequencers is pretty cool. So even if you have no use for the sound 
(which I doubt) the sequencer is probably worth the price of admission.

Hi Peter

The polymorph is a synth I have often thought about getting, mainly for the 
sequencer that everyone seems to rave about.  If you want to hear one in 
action, take a list to the "gresade_-_under_cover_agent.mp3" track on 
Www.komons.de.  The author claims this is just a Polymorph.  I really like 
the track - nice and gritty..

good luck
