Subject: Re: [motm] Four MOTM-700 VC Router patches

From: Richard Brewster <pugix@...>
Date: 2006-07-04

Thanks very much, John! I do remember you posting these before. I have
added these to my website, credited to you, so we can all remember them
easily:

I did a bit of editing and added my Mixer-Comparator as an alternative
mixer in the patches.
