Hello, I just picked up 3 used A-140s. They seem to be a little older than the others I have and they have flat-top LEDs versus the rounded LEDs in my other A-140s. Did the A-140 go through a design revision somewhere along the line? I ask because I like the response of the flat-

This is a great idea, thanks! I'll try it one day soon. Has any one made the internal switch of the A-192 (cv-midi) onto the front panel? Also I agree the A-129/3 is an excellent module and even better when using A-192/4 (slew limiter). I also use it (together with a CV source mo

The A129/3 IS AN EXTEMELY USEFUL MODULE!!!!! It allows for full processing of control voltages. What I suggest you do however is (if you have one, if not this also recommended for the A129/3) is place a A138a cv mixer next to it, so you can easily mix the prcoessed CVs as well. I
