hello phil,

that was what i thought in the beginning too,
switching the time range for only a few bucks more
would be great. but finally the dual module needs
an extra mixer and even more front panel controls
than two separate modules, so the price
for a dual module will be more than just a bit higher.
i estimate around 100 euros for a single module and
a minimum of 150 euros (or more) for a dual module.
the most important point for a single module
is the dedicated hs-vco.
we can morph between the two bbd's with modules like
a134 anyway. ok, you need another module for this,
but you get voltage control of the morphing then and
you can still use both bbd's separately, which is
not possible with the dual module.

just my two cents

best wishes

ingo
