Could not agree more!  That's what's its all about - unleash the 
floodgates and someone will find a unique application to use/abuse 
the design.  

That's totally the reason I went the modular route (plus the 
immediacy of it) and I'd bet alot of other people on the list would 
agree.  If all I wanted was a standard selection of modules I'd have 
decided on a simple monosynth with patch storage capabilities - much 
smaller, much less expensive, and, arguably, more convenient.  I'm 
not saying I don't think some of the current modules don't have 
unique features - I think they do.  I'm just stating that you've got 
a talented lot of thinkers w/ a different perspective on things and 
whatever you throw at us we'll make the most of.

I do understand producing the standard lot from a marketing/sales 
perspective but if we got one whacked out design for every 4 standard 
modules I think we'd all be happy.

>> So don't worry about being musically useful. We'll make some music 
with whatever you put out (perhaps with a pretty liberal definition 
of the word "music"). I like being challenged to figure out how to 
use a new module. For instance, I had no idea how I'd use a MiniWave 
based on the descriptions from Wiard and Blacet. But I knew Grant and 
John well enough to trust that it would be something cool, and got 
one. Same with the Dark Star. And I trust your designs enough to know 
that if you think a module's interesting, I will too! I know that 
when I heard the 6-way ringmod demo, I was hearing sounds that I 
wanted to make!
