hello phil,

i didn't have the time for real in-depth comparison yet,
but to my ears the model15 and zeroscillator sound
quite different. the possible amount of linear fm
seems to be greater on the zeroscillator, so it can
produce a wider range of sounds. the fm performance
is really outstanding on the zeroscillator, i have
never heard anything like it before.

ok, the zeroscillator is quite expensive, but it is
also an exceptionally massive piece of hardware
(you'll see that on the photos).

here are two shots of the unit which now belongs
to axel jungkunst.

and here are two shots of my own unit in fracrack format.

unfortunately i'm quite busy in the studio, so it
will take a while before i can do some sound examples.

best wishes
