how much more $$$ would it be? i think that both of these features 
are necessary to make it unique. there is presently only one other 
filter that morphs the various filter types out there. it is called 
the Omni Filter from the Wiard Synthesizer Company. here is the url.

a friend of mine had an original 6 module system. i put the system 
through its paces. i was very pleased and enamored by the sound of 
the filter and it's morphing feature. i can't even begin to imagine 
the possibility of morphing through 20 to 25 filter types and having 
a memory to be able to sequence them by voltage control.

having the filter without these options is good. having the filter 
with those options would really set apart from the rest of all the 
different filters out there, except the Buchla 292 Quad LoPass gate.:)

i think the extra cost is definitely worth it.

could be interesting.

hi bakis,
thanks for all the leg work, i will create the poll this evening. it 
will be short and sweet.:) sorry about the last big poll, but we were 
dealing with a very rich feature set. it's better to poll and dicuss 
ideas then scream after the fact why features weren't included. i am 
very pleased to see that this filter will be manufactured. Kudos to 
you and mr. Doepfer for bringing it to reality.

regards,
RM
