================

speaking for myself, i'd probably never notice if there's a bug with the 
sequencer; i've never used the sequencer, and don't plan on ever using it.

the battery thing... lemme know when that's fixed ;)

looking at the list of Proposed Features 
<http://patrioticduo.tripod.com/hawk800/id3.html> i would put my own 
priority as:

  1) velocity sense
  2) 2 "super" LFOs
  3) LFO direction invert
  4) LFO to noise gate

real-time MIDI control was high on my list, but that seems to have moved 
into the "completed" list. also the mono mode with portamento... i'd buy a 
small upgrade (eg, $10-20 EPROM) if that was the only thing it did ;)

so, mike... next time you put this much time and effort into a synth, 
maybe you'll consider doing something from scratch? along the lines of the 
sid-station, maybe?
