All ringmods seem to sound different- one of my signiture sounds was created
using the AN ringmod- very radiophonic- especially in the lower regions. My
favourite RM comes with both the EMS VCS3 and the Korg MS50 (same chip)- but
unfortunately these models are silly money now (however the chip is still
avaliable and costs a mere £2- what is this world coming to??- The ring mod
in the Nord Modular SUCKS!!!- so sorry for being a little vague- I've just
woken up- but I do like RM's....ho hum......!
