Analogue systems

Hi all,

First I can't wait for this module. We (A100 user group) have been 
after a subtractive osc bank for ages and this appears to be so much 
better than a number of sine wave generators obtained by pure 
analogue electronics, so thumbs up.

I personally don't understand peoples hang up's about using digital 
electronics in a modular system, as long as it can interface to the 
rest of the system (CV's & gates etc) what's the problem.

One of the great thing about Reaktor and the Nord is being able to 
take a traditional modular patch and put it through a granular 
module. It opens up a new world in sonic ability.

I'm interested in sound not just analogue technology .

I also congratulate Bob and his team on their working ethic in 
relation to sic "just another filter". Because I mix and match 
manafacturers, it's the new and different I crave.

first 16 and of course the unit will have knobs and c.v. sockets so 
it will be in the analogue realm as far as control goes. But the 
major interest comes when you v.c the first 24 harmonics in real-time 
mode(you will need the expander for this)although essentially a mono 
voice in this mode the realism will more than make up for it .In fact 
the Kawai K3 which is enjoying a mini revival was based on additive 
oscillator generation plus analogue subtractive synthesis. In fact 
because of the six voice midi/c.v. feature the user can blend rs95 
and user waveforms to pack more punch. This module will be a wolf in 
wolfs clothing.It will be the nearest thing we do to a digital voice 
and we do not intend going any further.I fact the Ramesys project 
will be taking up a lot of our time when we start on it and any new 
analogue modules,we think are worthwhile pursuing will take second 
place. We do not want to bring out say just a band pass filter or a 
vca with linear input and another with log input just to enlarge the 
module range.
