Dear All,

	Perhaps as the culprit who brought 'digital' to the 'analogue'
	debate you may have spotted that the original posting I made was
	about HYBRID systems.

	With these IMHO you get the best of both worlds - complex
	source waveform generators (with modulation if designed
	carefully) and the 'warmth' of analogue filtering.

	There have been posts asking for schematics/code - well the
	Modulus site has started the ball rolling - I'd like to see more
	on the pure hardware solutions (i.e. commercial processor-free)
	That is to say dedicated hardwired DSP - like the Music 5000 sytem -
	which could be interfaced to EITHER a MIDI processor OR to
	CV via a suitable ADC. Why not polyphonic too - surely the goal
	of most DIYers ?

	Hopefully this approach means that it wouldn't be necessary to have
	DSP development tools and programming facilities.

	Perhaps when I get around to designing a hardwired polyphonic 		wavetable
module some kind Synth-DIY contributer will host it
	on their site ?

	Regards

	Steve G

	P.S - Can someone explain the relationship between the Clintons
	and Synth-DIY - I don't think Bill DIYs !!
