hello shawn,
ok, but the vc matrix module poll is already open for
ages.why should i create a new poll
my opinio is that a matrix module would be great, but
it would make it much more interesting(and for dieter
to develope, also) if it was voltage controlable. for
example, you could change the matrix routings via
voltage control. but, i do't know what the price of
such a module would be. your opinion dieter
bakis.
