One of the trons here has the flute/8voice/3violins tapes installedbackwards. By accident of course. But it sounds excellent. Unique, in areally nice way.

By the way, M4000D #666 arrived today.  What an incredibleinstrument. Beautiful to play, look at, and listen too. It sounds like mybest tape tron, on a really good day.....every time I turn it on. Exactlywhat I was hoping for.

Markus, if you are hanging around here, thanks again for a spectacularachievement.
