Yeah!

I suggest that it should have X and Y control and a general
VCA control to enable proportinal simultaneous attenuation
of X and Y.

After this point i guess there is two ways to go:
Routing audio through this module or doing it as a quad pan
controller and using external vcas.

An upside of separating control and audio is that you could experiment
with using different types of VCAs, for example it would be interesting
to try a buchla-style quad lowpass gate as VCAs.

But an internal VCAs is of course more handy and easier to use.
And if it would have multiple channels with separate quad routing
it would do the mixing and go directly from there to speakers.

A quad panner would probably be cheaper to build without the VCAs but
in the end it would be more expensive and require more patching.
On the other hand the VCAs could occationally be used for other
purpouses. Another upside of a control only module is that it could
be used to control other things than VCAs.

What's the best way to go do you think?
