yes, isn't that weird?  I would expect perhaps a small improvement,
but nada.  Perhaps sample playback has superceded it or something?
I dunno.  oh well :)

p.s.  if you use "Say it"  from analogx, it's not exactly
obvious, but the pitch bar is in Hz.  So, if you know the freq's
of notes, you can do some fun things, like make tuned choruses 
chant your phrases, or just make weird sounds and pitch them accurately.

p.p.s.  if you use say it from analogx, what the *HELL* is that
"Cascad" bar all about?  all it does is f@#U*$@#$ck up my sound
consdierably.
