Re: forward:two or more a155's controlled by an a154(from doepfer)

Question:  Will the A154 also include a Phlogiston Inducer?

I'd REALLY like to know whether to wait for Doepfer to supply such a 
feature on the A154 (which, for the way I work, is essential to my 
creativity), or just go out and purchase another "off the shelf" 
CIGARETTE LIGHTER.

C'mon guys.  I know we're all trying to get as many features (as well 
as cost-effectiveness) out of the A154 as possible, but I'm left with 
a few questions.

Please (and most respectfully), indulge me for just one moment.

With the current selection of available Doepfer modules, we've so far 
managed to make some pretty impressive and amazing noises.  Are we in 
fact looking for a more useful tool, or just another "instant 
gratification" device?  In other words, are we getting a bit anal 
here?

I mean, we're working with analog modular synthesis.  Not a digital 
model of analog synthesis, but instead, the real and raw building 
blocks of analog synthesis.  We've chosen the difficult (and most 
often the much more creative) path of sound generation.  We've made 
the choice.
 
Are we getting too focused on our own personal "wish list" to be 
objective?  

Are we willing to pay for Doepfer to fund the development of our own 
individual features?  

When will we be satisfied?

Just a few thoughtsÂ…

Kind regards,
Kevin Lamb


PS – Dieter's direct involvement with this group is VERY cool indeed, 
of which much more is welcome.  Not only does it give us (the user 
and purchaser) feedback to the company/CEO from which our hard-earned 
cash is spent and invested, I feel that our interests are directly 
served.  Besides, with Dieter listening, he can actually see that his 
efforts are appreciated, and certainly not wasted.
