hi bakis, here a few thoughts that came to me while reading the 
doepfer post below. please foward them to doepfer.

Could you please include USB ports in the new cpu upgrade boards for 
the regelwerk and schaltwerk. it would obviously help sell both 
products. it will help bridge the gap between hardware and software. 
think of all the laptop users that are out there. it would be a great 
way for them to control their analog modular gear and their software 
from a simple USB port.

the schaltwerk should remain the song and pattern machine and the 
regelwerk should do patterns and midi controls. a survey of all the 
midi controllers on should be done. that way you could use the best 
features from all the others amalgamate into the regelwerk.

HI RM,
IT'S DONE! :-)

My current approach is to patch the gate outputs to the A155's 
external CV jacks. I clock the A155 so that it steps every 16 notes, 
playing the patterns in whatever order I want. Some of the patterns 
can be patched through an A180 Multiples and inserted several places 
into the song, or I can use all 8 of the gate outputs to make one long 
sequence of 8 distinct patterns.

I don't have a second A155, so I can't do the same thing with the 
Pitch CV outputs, but it works great for percussion parts, or with 
random A156 arpeggios and scales.

But if we're telling Doepfer that we don't want song mode, I guess I 
beg to differ.

hi joe,
very interesting use of the a155 in combination
with...the regelwerk?you mean the regelwerk,right?

Okey, I have had enough.

Nice as it was on this list I am leaving tonite cause as you all know the
good mails are far fewer than the "hey, check out this site" spams.

Best vishes

hi andreas,
that's not true!i am constantly disapproving new
"members" with random username letters.(these are the
ones that send all the spam mails...)so,for many days
now,there wasn't any spam mail in this group...
