Now I know why Moe was always mad :)

de nada :)

As you already noted, I had no intention of posting to the list. I
expressed my opinion quite clearly months ago, and was told a motm module
could not have three knobs and five jacks. What's done is done, and there
is no point in complaining about it now.

What if you weren't going to mix them externally?? With separate outputs
you could run them through different filters, different waveshapers,
different VCA's, use different overdrive characteristics with the same
filter, etc. Also, since sync inputs expect a pulse you couldn't create a
"double saw", and since the miniwave expects a saw you couldn't use the
pulse at the same time.

Exactly my point!!

While I disagree that it wouldn't increase its functionality, I agree that
would be an extremely ugly hack and it is something I would not do.

Thank you for your advice.
