Wouldn't this be the perfect time to implement the full 80 channels of CAPS.
Why stop at 16 channels if you have so much horsepower?

Are we to assume this will be a full blown emulation with the ability to re-synthesize with the pen (it never really worked with the series 3 anyway) and how about making the resonant filters self oscillate, this was always a major flaw for me in terms of reworking base material, also more powerful envelope generators and maybe additional re-synthesis functions such as ring modulation. This would be a great opportunity to create a 'next generation' CMI and if we just get a remodeled series 2/3 it would seem a bit pointless. Anyway, if this turns out to be a 'series 4' effectively with new functionality I'll be buying one for sure.
