RE: [motm] more module ideas

2000-11-18 by Brousseau, Paul E (Paul)

The Doepfer version also requires additional modules: a "minimum" of 4 extra
VCAs and VCO / VCF / VCP (?)s, according to the website.  It also only uses
saws and triangle waves.  Square would be useless, but sine would be nice.
I'd like a MOTM version to be a little more "complete", even if it meant
that it only had 4 phases.

Hmm, I'm not feeling coherent.  Did that make sence?  Or even better, is it
remotely reasonable to get 4, 6, or 8 VCAs, VCFs, and LFOs in one package,
with varying LFO shape...?
