Only got the vintage ones here, and I love it (the other is dead). I'm not
sure on the tracking of the thing, but to me it sounds a lot better than my
Roland filters, which are just too clinical.

Rex really "cleaned up" the design of the filters. He increased the
tolerances of the components by a large factor to get rid of the "grung"
factor.... his very words.
The only comparison i have is listening to my rig (filters) and listening
to Kevins early works.... sooooo creamy!!! hahaha
