It would not change anything adding a faster 6809 and upping the
speed of the clocking circuit, you would have to change a lot more in
the circuit to cope with the faster speeds.. it would also create a
high risk of breaking things. Circuits do not like to be run at a
faster speed than they were designed for they usually break or dont
work at all. I would never risk this in such an expensive piece of
kit.
I personally do not understand this general obsession with making
envelopes faster, the Xpander is perfection itself. It the real world
the basses sound fine, gorgeous in fact, I love them..If you are
actually sitting down with a scope analysing speeds of enevelopes on
these machines, I personally think you've lost it. You need to
actually play it more, write some songs, use it as an instrument. You
change stuff in it, you will ruin the sound I guarantee it.
If you need ridiculously punchy bass, just buy a Moog Source or
something.
Just wanted to add I'm not being mean...these things come across
better face to face :o)
