Even later than 1.0?

I think we are misunderstanding each other. I already have a Monomachine,
and as such some familiarity with the interface and routing FX. To be more
specific I am wondering if it would be possible to do something like have
track 1 with GND SIN or some other sound--> route that into the Ring Mod
FX Machine on another Track as a mod source, then route another track as
an input into the Ring Mod (lets say DigiPro, for example) so the Ring Mod
Track is manipulating the output of the SID track, but the GND SIN track
is an operator effecting the Ring Mod track's effect- but it is not the
sound that is being processed... perrhaps this is only possible on a
modular synth... Im not sure

Thanks.

Yes.

You can only have one track as input to an FX machine. But you can 
generate sounds internally in the FX machine and also control its 
pitch just as a synthesis machine. The Ringmod machine would 
probably be using some sinus or triangle as modulator. This would 
blur the line between what is synthesis and effects, as you have the 
same kind of pitch control for both!
