Re: Module Price Increase ? --- can doepfer confirm.

"The best modular system ever in production" - I can echo that 
opinion. My only gripes are that the modules aren't the full MOOG 
size- but that's hardly a "fault" - it's the way things have 
generally gone, and the VCO has a selection of ranges, each with a 
quite small tuning range. I found this to be a little bit of a 
nuisance after An.Sol's VCOs, which have a wide audio spectrum of 
requencies available at the spin of a pot.
If that's the worst I can come up with as complaints, then things 
have to be generally excellent!
