Doepfer

to all,
if i`ve understood the discussion on the list about this properly, other  
than for reason`s of having the module in doepfer / euro format rather than  
frac-rac format and doepfer format (ie : a-110 vco and a blacet/wiard  mini-wave), 
i`m not sure i`ve seen that much advancement in the "state of the  art" here 
- i in no way mean to be critical of the question and honestly, i`m  the 
"maybe" vote to date - i just wonder if a module like this isn`t a diversion  from 
other thing`s perhap`s more interesting ?
additionally, while i don`t  use computer`s with my modular so i don`t  use 
any of the doepfer a-112 sample dump / wave dump feature`s, i have  found it 
useful as a "spare / alternative" vco and just recently, in one of  those great 
momemnt`s of realization - to wit : i had wanted to sell the a-112 a  while 
back and didn`t right off so i didn`t pursue it further. well, now having  the 
module in my mind, i started playing with it more and now am glad i didn`t  
sell it. just load some weird bit of audio, anything from a waveform to a real  
world noise and wave it - nice noise`s ! yeah, the 8 bit`s is a bit rough but  
give`s the sound a certain "quality". in fact, unless the proposed module is 
at  least 16 bit, given what`s already to use right now, again, is it worth the 
 diversion of effort`s better spent elsewhere?
i`d love to hear any discussion about it !
best,
dave
