The very first expanded Miniwave was also made that way by Dave
Hylander.

How are you using it?  Since the PROMS are so different, I find it
hard to imagine switching by CV, except for purely random weirdness. 
Of course maybe that's a good enough reason!

HA.  The randomness is interesting in inself.  I let mine sit for
hours (for testing) with a LFO feeding each of the three sweepable
inputs and a scope hooked to the output.  It was really quite fun. 
However, from a practical point of view, I'm not sure that sweeping
from ROM to ROM is a huge advantage.  I you were using a sequence and
wanted to be able to change quantizing automatically and the scales
you wanted were in two different chips.

Let me add reason d):

If we had to try to keep up with the demand we have plus what people
are getting from Schaeffer, it would kill us.  I am glad this other
option is out there.  Otherwise, this would probably be like a full
time job.

Stooge Larry, expecting the last of the panels any day now.
