VC control of 1st and last steps - yes
32 steps - 16 is enough for me but why not
Plastic policy - agree 100 %

Some visitors recommended

AND NOW MY OPINION ,ABOUT THE A154 FEATURES:VC OF
FIRST AND LAST  SEQUENCE STEP WOULD BE GREAT!!!(THE
MORE OPTIONS AND CONTROLS THE BETTER!). ABOUT THE FREE
RUNNING SEQUENCER CLOCK...WHY NOT?.ABOUT THE 32
STEPS....IT MAY BE TOO MUCH TO HAVE 4 A155'S LINKED
TOGETHER......
PLEASE LIST MEMBERS,HAVE YOUR SAY!
BAKIS.
