I was thinking that it couldn't cost that much more than the MAQ
($799) and the hardware alone (64 pots & knobs) can't cost as much as
the Drehbank ($500). Even if the module cost $800 plus $200 for the
154, it would be a pretty attractive alternative to the other 16X4
sequencers out there. It would have many of the features of something
like the Milton or the Serge TKB at a fraction of the cost and it
would still be cheaper than the number of 155s required to put
together an equivalent patch.
