I had a request regarding the 120 - maybe someone else was thinking the same. Would it
be possible to get some samples of what it does in terms of just adding the sub-octaves?
I know, it's a boring request, but while it's nice to hear what it's theoretically capable of -
full-on intermodulated extremeness - for my purposes it'd be much more useful to know
what it sounds like when ∗just∗ adding the sub-octaves.
Some of you might say "it sounds like the original, but with four sub-octaves" but there
are sub-octaves and there are sub-octaves, if you know what I mean.
just my 2 cents,
Matthew
