Doepfer

hi-
i would like to post a clip of the real ring mod with two a119s 
before it in the signal chain, but my computer is currently crapping 
out too often and my recording app., cubase, is too unstable now to 
mess with.  when i get it back up into good running i will try to 
post some MP3s to the file sections of the site.
