Hello. I'm looking into buying one of the BBD modules. I have a few questions: Which BBD delay has the greatest span of delay times (from longest to shortest) ? I've read the manual but it doesn't explain the min/max for each module. Is there some sort of comparison chart for the

From my personal point of view the new A-106-6 XP VCF offers the most features at a reasonable price - provided that you like the XP filter sound. You get 15 different filters (4 differens LPFs, 3 different HPFs, 4 different BPFs, notch and combinations of notch and LPF). For mor

Having had the A-120, the A-121 and the Synthi Filter, I would take the A-121. Further, for a small setup, perhaps a multimode filter (the A-121)is most appropriate. I have not tried the Polivoks or the Frequensteiner, unfortunately. Regarding great industrial sound, I can't reco

Actually that would be a better idea. Then the cost of the main VCO could be cheaper to those who don't need these options. This module of course would work for VCFs also. For me the module would be perfect if it had an Octave select switch, a fine tune knob, a CV in (or two that
