Suddenly it occurred to me that the PSIM would be good for all kinds of scales.... couldn't we, for all intents and purposes, assign any arbitrary scale here? I mean, map any set of values against any other set.... polyphonically?!? Holy shit! Okay, I'm really excited about that possibility.... a quantizing Shift register in some exotic scale... the other PSIM with polyphonic quanting to that same scale.... with that whole idea of one input plays unisons while another plays scale-tone chords w/voltage controlled inversions.... I'm drooling... And to think I could have all that in a multi program and just switch programs to some wild and crazy modulation source, polyphonic glide, or even a spare ADSR...... This module was a God-inspired stroke of genius, whether anyone realizes that or not. Does anyone else have the feeling that this could actually DEFINE A NEW KIND OF MUSIC, or drastically change the way we make music? In a way, it's like a modular within a modular... It makes me feel like I have a Buchla 300 system or something [:-) No, I'm not on acid, I'm actually sitting here at work, operating a switchboard and entering things in a database and I had this brainstorm..... These PSIMs are the most exciting thing in my entire modular synth....and, me being an unabashed and rabid synth freak (all my friends know, and they've tried an intervention.... it just didn't work), that's saying a whole damn lot!! Cheers to Brice! Jonathan
