Hi 

I agree with you, I would choose a standalone matrix and connect it in a fixed, labelled semi-modular way with an analog synth, moogerfoogers etc - but I would not really want to use one as part of my main modular system - a modular with mixers and multples is already a huge matrix, no?

  Dear members,

  after some discussions with Musikmesse visitors and my own experience I
  doubt if the patch matrix is really a useful tool within a modular system.
  From my point of view such a matrix is very useful in a semi-modular unit
  with fixed assignments of the inputs and outputs. But in a modular system
  one has to patch even the ins and outs, i.e. you have to remember which
  modules are connected to the patch matrix. I think this additonial
  "openness" nullifies to a considerable degree as one could do most of the
  patches also without the need of a patch matrix.

  Maybe I missed something. Anyway, as I do not really stand by this module we
  will manufacture it only if there are a reasonable amount of pre-orders.

  In addition a poll would be useful for us to find out if other members have
  different opinions. I'll ask Bakis to start the corresponding poll.

  Best wishes
  Dieter Doepfer
