Gary, I haven't worked that one out yet! The instructions dont give any info on the cartridge slot on the back. I know there are plans for Markus to provide extra voices on a cartridge at some stage, but as I wont be requiring that feature, you should maybe email him for an answer.
Still sounding great, though the sound is somewhat smoother in nature compared to it's tape based master. I have no urge to ditch my m400, which i'm relieved about as I feared I might!

How difficult is it to add new voices?

I signed up early on with a serial number of 43.
I know he has had production issues, particularly as the voice count was about six when I first contacted him. Then he said he wanted to go to 100, but was facing delays with the software. In all fairness he did give me the option of having one with the low voice count, but I felt it was going to be worth the wait to get the full set of 100. I didn't want to get into having to getting it upgraded.
Hang on in there, it will be well worth the wait.

/is jealous/

Andy, can I ask what serial number yours is?
I'm number 90, I think...
I guess they're slowly trickling out in serial number order...
