Doepfer

Allow me to repsectfully disagree on this.  A module such as the 
Buchla Multiple Arbitrary Function Generator is one thing and I 
agree with you wholeheartedly,  it will and should take time and a 
learning curve to unlock.

A simple waveshaper however is a totally different story.  One 
could and would expect instant gratification from such a device.

My point was that I have heard many a waveshapers with the 
deeper level of  modulation, and that has nothing to do with my 
understanding of synthesis and/or any catagory that may place 
me in!

My credits will happily be supplied upon request.

best,

P
