Hey Mike,
Did Yahoo mess with your file or just me? When I downloaded your attachment it came up as a zip file not the .odg extension. Then Winzip let me unzip it and the result was a couple of folders and a few xml files. The only image is a thumbnail that's micro sized. I'll have to wait for OpenOffice to check it out after I renamed it back to the .odg extension.

I like Tyman's font. I doubt Adobe Acrobat will understand it though, hope he proves me wrong.

And I am surprised no one had asked me what the extra two values (12 and 13) are in the LFO waveform parameters. Those are for routing EG3 or EG3 inverted to the particular chosen modifier. Basically, you can route EG3 to any of the modulators instead of LFO waveforms. I look forward to hearing some patches from ppl that use this cool undocumented feature.

This is much nicer than anything I could have dreamed up. Did you do the graphics? I realize the font didn't translate for crap, but hey it is what it is. Nice job!!!
