Hi Paul n All !

Thought i'd chip in here .

The charm/goodness of the MS20 filter section is also due to it being
a band pass filter, with separatly modulatable freq, res, and mix
from the front panel . The module you propose is much more in the
skinny Doepfer philosophy . I'd rather see a full scale module, with
VC res on both sections, several modulation schemes (see
Synthesource, Curtis publ) and built in mixers .

This last point may open a debate, but synths without input mixers
are a pain in the ass . Just look at any real life Synton modular
setup, more mixers than other modules . The ARP Odyssey is so
versatile because of its mixers ... etc . If one had VC mixers as
well, now that would be something ... (this also goes for other
modules) .

If any LFO's are included, make them sync-able to external input,
good for repeatability of resulting sweeps . If this is not liked,
do not use it :)

Still in "world beater" thinking mode ;-)

Take care .


Keep 'em oscillating :)
