Modular Synth Panels

Ah ha!  Well - yes - I thought I was looking at the MOTM group when I
made my last post.  So the first paragraph about Paul having pointed
Will and me here is irrelevant, certainly - please ignore it.  My
other two paragraphs aren't irrelevant.

But now, addressing Bob's post - yes - I get that this forum's really
about the panels - of course.  But lots of questions come up when
designing a panel - and even when implementing a module considering
the panel - as to the modules's features and options as implied by the
panel design.  To that extent, I see the value in those kinds of
discussions here.  And I'm just playing devil's advocate a little bit,
I guess.

I also commpletely see your and Gino's point in suggenting the new
forum... but it's not really a Bridechamber support thing per se,
right?  But I take your point.

You know - we probably need a Synth and MOTM 12-step program forum
most of all <G>.
