though you may need to be a group member to see it.
I don't see anything that doesn't look real. the input port module is
in the middle. what's non-standard is the horizontal mounting of it
next to the touch surface module. It's not that it won't work but the
range for the ring controllers isn't very optimal oriented that way.
As for needing both pieces, that's a must, it's not like the
touchplate has it's own CV outputs, they are on the input port
module. I'd suspect the microprocessor(s) are in the other module too.
What he doesn't seem to have is a preset manager. You don't have to
have one but to get the most out of the 222e you'd probably want to
store more than one 222e configuration and more than one sequence.

greater than finding an Easel (unless of course Don has a new one in
the works)
