I see. But in all the anouncements of upcoming modules this is the first
ever mentioned of this as far as I know.

new modules.<<

I believe it because I was just wondering the other day what was happening
with the MOTM Phaseshifter and that rackmount Vocoder that have been in
development for a long time.

>>Both the MOTM-440 and MOTM-420 can be overdriven (it takes 2 or 3 inputs,
though).<<

Yes, but when I accidently overdrive them (or at least the 440) it sounds
awful. It doesn't sound like the kind of overdrive you want.

>>MOTM-420 has 3 out of 4<<

Yes, but the outputs aren't available simultaneously. And the Bandpass is
one of the most useful. It currently takes two 420s just to get a Bandpass
filter so it's very wasteful or expensive, however you want to look at it.
But I can wait. I still have an "enemy" modular system that can hold me over
on missing MOTM functions until they arrive.
