--LH--
I also ordered two as I feel that emulation of that particular Yamaha sound
may be better with a pair of 485s instead od a 480. Of course, I still have
a 480 on order. However, while I have doubled up on all my other MOTM
filters, I am ordering the pair of 485s as opposed to getting two 480s.

a little taste in .WAV format of what they sound like, to whet the appetite!

I had the pleasure of an on site demo at AHMW 2004. I think this filter
will find a way in many acoustic sounding patches. Crow has done an
exceptional job of reverse engineering what looked impossible to me. :)
