I'll probably add a few pots (minimum of 2 for sampling speed and volume..
probably have a little internal mixer if there's more than 1 per 1U rack)
and 1/4" jacks for output and trigger input. This is no synth, BTW, just a
sample-playback box. (which is why this is, I realize, bordering on
off-topic despite the fact that I've recieved a number of positive
replies.)

I've encountered a problem.. they upped the price on these things since I
last checked. Ack. They yackback-type toys are now ~10-15$, which makes
putting several of them together at once a little less appealing. I'm
keeping my eyes peeled for closeout specials, though. 

take care,
Andrewp
