Thanks Larry!

How is the breath controller mod coming along? Which
breath controllers are still available for sale?

I have seen a couple of bad reviews of the MO0G pedal.
Has anyone else tried it? Does it actually output a
CV? Are there any CV out pedals available? Or that
were ever available?

Cheers!
