Hi,

I know the Matrix-6 and the Xpander series are different beasts.

My goal is just to see how the options are organized in those
screens, not to copy ALL of them.

For example, the Matrix-6 does not have the 15-modes filter, and
you must choose a waveform between the saw and the triangle, not like the 
Xpander where they are available individually.

I just need inspiration.
Thanks
