Subject: Quantizer modules (was List of...)

From: eric f <ach_gott@...>
Date: 2009-02-16

Any quantizer delivered by Synth Tech would have to offer features that are significantly different from the current offerings on the market.  Apart from using tuning tables (which would allow it to be used like a sequencer when driven from an LFO or the 730) and thereby allowing microtuning (mentioned in another email), I can't think of anything.  It would have to be partnered with another function. 

There's also, as John alludes to, the time to market factor.  The longer this function remains unaddressed in the product line, the more likely users are to pursue and purchase existing solutions, of which there are several.

cheers,
eric f

A quantizer is high on my list but unless something else comes along that
seems like a better fit, I'll be getting the Modcan 55B.

I use quantizers quite a bit. I have two Wiard/Blacet Miniwaves and
also a Modcan Dual Quantizer 55B. The Modcan is a very nice quantizer
with all the features I need. But if Paul Schreiber makes any control
voltage module with a quantizer, I'll be in for one or two of those.
