Well..I´m not sure we are talking about the same thing, Tom.

The point that i was trying to make was:

I look at this Control Matrix List (data list p10)
To me it seems that pitch or fine pitch of either oscillator
cannot be controlled by CC´s or AT or Vel or KeyRnd only by KeyTrk.
See, all those x´s instead of O´s.Itdoesn´t say anyhere on that list
what x´s mean, but from what i´ve learned it should mean NO WAY :( )

Now I set the step sequencer to play all those notes and thats all
very cool (actually nothing here is totally uncool).
Since there is this great option to do some control number tweaking
on every step I do just that.

PEG decay changes sound just fine on their own, but I also "patch"
it to the pitch of VCO1. This may be nuts but I don´t know :)
Well...the letters and numbers start blinking (and no I´m not trying
to save anything - it actually blinks differently)

I can still here that the  settings I make affect the sound drastically.

I´m not complaining at all.
Just don´t know what I should make of all those x´s on data list
and that crazy blinking.

If you - if any one of you - would try to make the settings I described abo=
ve and then share your views. that would help greatly.
At least me if not anyone else.
