Yeah - but, the Andromeda is an incredible synth for non-electronic
stuff, as it offers a new sound to different styles of music.  This is
basically what I was trying to do with the Arrogants stuff.

I listened to some of the stuff on your website, I especially like
"Amuleto."  Out of curiousity, what type of filter were you using in
the beginning there?
