I'd like to see the MOTM equivalent be broken into separate modules (and I think
this is Paul's plan), a separate instrument preamp, envelope follower and
envelope generator all prove useful in this one situation, but who wants to buy
3 preamps just because they want 3 envelope followers. I'm in favor of making
modules as "modular" as possible. The 1st modular I looked at was the paia 9700
series. For obvious reasons I decided to go with MOTM, but one of the major
reasons I didn't like the 9700 stuff was because you couldn't just buy a filter,
it had to have a built in EG and LFO, you couldn't just buy a VCA, it had a
mixer and noise source built in. When you break all the components down into
separate modules, it also allows you room for more features and control. -Nate
