Hi Ingo
Oops, I was not aware of Florian's role in the A-101-1 (and other
modules);
Obviously, I really appreciate people that take existing concepts one
or more steps further in their minds and hands

The only (minor) design flaw IMHO is that the three input level knobs
for this module are somewhat hard to manipulate with patch cords in
place, but I guess that is unavoidable for such compact & price
effective designs as the A-100

Best regards from Amsterdam,
Joost
