Larry Hendry and anyone else who attended AHMW2000 can attest to that. --------- I have done that before too just messing' around. You can get some nasty distortion for other waveshapes though. I will certainly attest as Cary said that Tony's VCOs were very interesting. They are not something for sale, but ones that he made DIY for himself. He must of provided waveshaping for all waves AFTER the fullwave rectifier as his VCOs had all waveshapes out plus all waveshapes at 2X frequency. However, Tony is one of those banana jacks guys. And, the crazy thing is his circuit boards were all SMD (hand soldered). Now, very few of us have that kind of patience. Tony is a talented guy. Next year at AHMW I just MUST spend some time playing with his modular gear. Aside from his DIY stuff, he has one of those Fenix semi-modulars and some interesting Modcan stuff. The Fenix is kind of wild looking, but has stuff way too crammed into tiny spaces for my personal taste. I guess they only made about 75 of those. The Modcan stuff he had looked like nice quality, but the panels were all mixed with jacks and controls. I am used to the non-cluttered MOTM approach to jacks and controls on separate parts of the control panel. All-in-all, I thought it was a very interesting set up. Cary don't you still have some photos at your site? Larry Hendry
