I also heard often the earlier systems were more common (in that time) in that
they were FAR less stable (less so than most contemporary VCOs) and the filters
had a by FAR warmer sound than the later (when is later?) VCFQ.

I would be very interested in info on this; the wide range of different slope
generating/ processing models are sort of my favourite subject.

Not anymore. It's a pity, I would appreciate overall greater knobs on both
Serge and Wiard systems.
