MOTM

I had enough trouble cramming the EX-2 into the house.  The EX-1 has the 
nifty solo manual, but all in all I rather like the look of the EX-2 
better.  The rest of the organ is essentially the same.  Besides, I do not 
relish a 40-hour round trip in a cargo van to haul such a beast home.  (A 
13-hour round trip for something that was 1/3 of that ebay price was much 
easier to deal with).

  Still, others might like an EX-1.  Just understand it will take 6 people 
to move it.  And, while claims to have inherited GX-1 circuitry are 
certainly valid, the EXs do not use VCOs; they use wavetable oscillators 
(sine tones included).  The synth voice signal path is very CS-like, but 
it does not have the variable-bandpass filtered sawtooth or the noise, 
triangle or variable-highpass filtered pulse front-end the GX1 has.  It 
does have two oscs per note, though.

  And to nimbly kick this onto MOTM-topic, the same filters as from which 
I made the MOTM-480 are in the EX-1 and EX-2.
