hello ingo,

i couldn't try the a105 with the miniwave yet, because i
actually use the a105 in a big patch and i won't touch
the module until i have finished the track i'm working on.
in this patch i use the a105 at full resonance, without
any input signal. the ssm2044 in self-oscillation is simply
gorgeous. it must be the best-sounding self-oscillation ever.

best wishes

ingo
