Doepfer

wow, excellent result joe!   thanks for taking the time to try a patch 
w this arrangement, hopefully others will benefit from your test 
as i have.   
coincidentally, i just ordered a 185 earlier today.  to be honest,  i 
really didn't think it would work w a mult..glad to know know now 
that it will.
cheers,
ps minor
