Doepfer

hi andreas,
well VA is one thing and real analog is another!i myself have the 
nord micromodular and i love it,but if you're willing to give some 
money nothing beats a real modular...
about the vco's the a111 is tops as it have linear FM!!!with it you 
can do many unusual sounds...i love it!!!also,the a110 sounds 
good ,too...(fatter than a111???)
again,i can't compare them to other companies vco's,as i don't have 
any...
bakis.
