Yes, that is a very good point. I use dotcom and moog ttogether, and 
since the dotcom VCO signal is so hot (10 volt peak-to-peak), it is 
possible to overdrive the moog 904 VCF quite dramatic, and even the VCA 
so too. This effect can be dramatic or subtle, and has *much* to do 
with the sound.

I am sure you will hear a difference if you set this up.
I see many people transfering moogerfoogers into modular format. Very 
tempting, indeed!
