Thanks a lot, Ingo--I'll keep that in mind. I don't think I'll ever
get a Blacet Frequency Divider, so that should be no problem...and I'm
mostly going to use the Blacet system for bringing in some different
filters and oscillators. (esp. the MOTM GX-1 filter...which is the
same filter as in my Yamaha SY-1...which doesn't have CV or audio inputs).

I'm thinking about adding the Wiard joystick...does it also only send
+/-5v I should probably just get the Doepfer Joystick, but I'm out
of Doepfer rack space...and I don't want my habit getting out of hand...
