You said a mouthful there Andy. I love PWM and the shape control on the 320
adds a new dimension to that whole process.

Oh yes. I ordered two to start with and can see how easily I could have
two-per-voice in my MOTM system eventually. Since I have two now, I have
to report that I am enjoying using one for a sub oscillator (via the
syncing action I described in a previous post, and the second for a
modulation source for both a 300 VCO and the other 320. Obviously, using
the Pulse output of the "sub-osc" 320 and the shape in from the other you
get great PWM from your 320 sub osc.

I have a patch going on right now with one 300 VCO going through the 410
filter (lots of LFO internal action going there). The 410, a 320 sub osc,
and my other 300 are all fed to the 420 filter. I am using the other 320
for modulation of the 300 going straight to the 420 and the other 320. I
am in LFO heaven. I could do a bit more if I had that mixer thing.

Well, much of my debugging in life in general comes from screwing things up
the first time through. As far as interesting ways to use it, I would
really like to hear from the guys that are more modular savvy. This is my
first. The only good thing about that is I am not constrained by doing
anything correctly. Hell, I'm just learning. And, fortunately (or not
depending on your perspective), I am not afraid to just spill it all out
there and look stupid.
