larry,
i certainly didn`t take it that way and,like i said, i don`t know him. last i
heard, "s" moved to france. "c" seems to have disappeared. one of the people
who used to work with him was at emu at one time ( kevin monahan) but i don`t
know what became of him now either. i recall seeing that rex ran out of the
potted modules that made up the pitch to voltage converter. pity, it was a
fun module to mess around with and it worked pretty well. from a lengthy
article i saw in an old electronotes designing one that worked well was not a
simple engineering task!!! makes me wonder how well the pitch to midi gizmo`s
i`ve seen mentioned work -? anyone have one -? probably too specialized for
paul to mess with. me, i`d encourage weird waveshapers of all sorts but thats
just my two cents worth. once a workable basic set of modules is done, it is
the unusual ones that helps define a systems personality. me, i`m a heretic -
i pretty much think basic vco`s,vca`s,eg`s are "solved" problems due to
things like cem chips. its what is added to that foundation that makes the
difference and lets a designer focus on other, weirder things. IMHO, of
course, so please don`t shoot me!!!! :^)
best,
dave
