WHEW - OK here goes, it's quite complex so I'll just be able to give you a flavor of it. I told
Paul that I used all of my Stooge cables on this one and had to resort to my old Hosas as
well.

Anyway, there are 8 voices that were recorded simultaneously (no overdubs). The melody
was generated by some code I wrote for the PSIM which also implements a 4 stage shift
register, so that's where the canon comes from. Very pretty.

I used the 730 to generate all the triggers, clocked by an LFO (320). The various divider
outs trigger 800s which control various VCAs and filters. I used every VCO in my system
and every filter except the 410.

One other trick: I took the STEP out of the 730 and fed that into the VC IN of the same: this
gave the tune a nice lilting quality.

There is a lot going on in this patch, but the bottom line is that this is a single patch of a
largish system driven by the 730. I can't tell you all enough how cool this module is. Get
in line, sign up, whatever you do, get yourself one.

PS - I'm glad you liked the music, George!
