That's OK. It is a cool machine just as it is.

Well, for now, I will just have to use my OB-8 or JP-6 for such nonsense.
I'm not in any danger of needing a MIDI to CV controller for polyphonic
operation of my MOTM. However, add a dual VCA, and a couple of VCFs and I
could do three voice with one osc plus sub osc on each. However, with 2000
looking like the year of many new modules, I may need the pro-4 or
Expressionist by then. I know, I'll call John and see if he will be doing
any polyphonic upgrades to the firmware on my PAiA MIDI2CV8.
ROTFLMAO......
