Hi, all-
The 6 track set would SEEM to offer a combo of 2
voices for each of the 5 positions of the selector
switch. ("A" would be voices 1-2, "AB" would be 2-3,
"B" would be 3-4, etc.) I guess one would REALLY have
to like those combos, so, wise voicing decisions would
have to be made. Doubling would be easy, though, so
long as long as they are not too closely in-phase on
adjacent tracks. Yeah, it would be interesting to
hear a sample of this tape frame.
