The only one that really does this is the Munging Decimator, and it ranges from 4 to 12 bits at
rates not yet decided.

There is a 3min demo at www.synthtech.com/demo/wavewarper.mp3

Right there. It switches 14 wires. Hard to find a toggle switch for 14 wires :)

Yes, 100%.

The vast majority of 500/600 Series will require the new power supply, or you will have to get a
seperate +5V, 6A supply and wire into the new connector boards.

Yes.

I will pnder to see if this makes sense. Many of the newer kits have "zero panel wiring" so a
'semi-kit' makes no sense.
