Is there a difference in the span of the tuning knob between the 110 and
111 I can tune my 111s up or down about an augmented 4th, but the
range on the 110s seems less, so that I can't necessarily bring it to a
specific pitch without a CV. Is that weird performance that differs
from other people's 110s (Personally I prefer the sound of the 111s
for its slightly more sharp and robotic quality. But both pack a
punch.)
