Re: Sharing my experience with eBay / PayPal FRAUD!

<<Ok, so....which is it?  One filter for each of the keys?>>
I have explored this extensively with mine since I received it... it seems like
this MUST be true.

<<Non-resonant?>>
It has one filter control for all of the filters, and it IS resonant.

<<Ok  And three resonant filters that get prioritized?>>
There is the Resonator, which basically boosts three different user definable
points...  and it'll sweep through them either with MG2 or whatever you patch.

<<From that grammar
that's the only logical conclusion I can arrive at.  Telling whether there's
resonance on more than three voices at a time could be a challenge...>>
Well, see... it's not like a resonating filter... it's well... more like the
Novachord.  Really more like merely a 3 band equalizer that you can sweep
through.  The sound is VERY cool, and I think it's one of the coolest functions
of the synth.

<<Meanwhile, it says 12 VCO's in the tech info??  duhhh...that I'm have
real problems with. They just said 48 vco's above.  now they are saying only
1/4th that number.  What gives?? Hmm.>>
12 Oscillators, in True Divide-Down Tradition.
: )

<<No release I see on the envelope
generators.  One might ask why....as in they wouldn't have done that likely
unless it was a massive shortcut that would shed light perhaps on the other
questions we ponder here.   So I take it you don't get a lot of slowly
rising/falling type sounds out of this one then?>>
Yes, the ONE weakness I find in this synth... the envelope generator has a
crappy release aspect... a small switch with "damped," "half damped," and
"release,"  Which are clipped, not as clipped, and a little too long, in that
order.  It has a "hold" which only works when the attack is set over 7... fun,
but weird.  The good thing is that there is another EG, the "General EG."  It
has a little more release control, but then you're sending all notes through
one EG and you get the same problem Deltas have... one EG for 48 notes  creates
a retriggering problem.   BUT, using both EGs together with the interesting
ability to choose how many notes TRIGGER the second EG  ends up being cooler
than if it just had a normal ADSR.

<<Meanwhile, I got a polymoog today with a few problems.  That one'll be fun
to look at I'm sure.  Have to pick up in Oakland the first of next year it
appears.>>
I'd be interested in hearing how the repair of that goes!
