thanks bakis, ingo, for the explanation. i see now. and now that you mention it, i too
would prefer a patchable version. though the microprocessor would be cool if one
were able to step address or cycle through the matrices via CV a la a107. but that's
another beast entirely i reckon, and afterall, patchability is really what it's all about,
not necessarily cycle-ability.
thanks,
