Hi, folks!

I haven't posted here much since I came here for advice on purchasing
my first A100 modules. But I can happily say that my A100 has grown
quite a since those first 12 modules you guys helped me pick! So
here's what I'm hoping someone here can help me with now...

Ever since Joe Zawinul appeared on the cover of Keyboard magazine
decades ago with his Oberheim 8-voice, I've had an intense desire to
own at least a 2 or 4-voice. However, I'd rather not spend the kind
of money these things are going for these days (especially given
their age). So my crazy quest is to try and patch something that can
sound reasonably similar on an A100 and *maybe* even a Nord Modular
G2 or G1 (yeah I know they're not analog, but it's really just for
fun in that case). Unfortunately, I can't find the sound of a raw
SEM. I believe I've already got the necessary A100 modules and of
course the Nord Modulars have an endless number of modules to build
from. What I'm hoping someone can provide are short WAV recordings
of:

- Note (single voice) with saw, square and pulse waveforms
- Note with a slowly opening and then closing filter (no resonance)
- Note with a slowly opening and then closing filter (mid resonance)
- Note with a slowly opening and then closing filter (full resonance)
- Filter only (self resonating)

I would also like a brief description of how voice allocation works
on a 2, 4 or 8 voice in terms of how SEM banks are assigned. And of
course, if there are other quirks that this instrument has which
contribute to it's sound that I might need to know about, please
include that information as well (like envelope behavior, sequencer
strangeness, etc.)

I hope this all isn't too much to ask, but I'd really like to have a
proper reference point before I embark down this path. Of course,
even if what I'm attempting is absolutely not possible to come close
to, I can appreciate that feedback as well - just know then that you
may be sending me into great debt as I try to get hold of a real
Oberheim 4-voice! :-)

Also, if someone here can make the recordings but need a place to
host them, I can set up an FTP location. If the files can be
compressed with WinRAR, that should greatly reduce the file size.

Thanks!

Kindest regards,
John
