MOTM

Please excuse if this post is a bit disjointed.  I'm actually 
replying to Paul's reply to me on list, but storms in the area have 
fouled up our email so I have to yahoo :(

I would include a phase reversal switch because phase reversal is 
sometimes useful if running two parallel signal paths, I agree it is 
not useful if only using one preamp.  On the other hand the signal 
could be inverted further downline.  I would point out that most 
consoles have phase switches and console EQ typically mangles phase 
as well.

The reason for the TRS is not for stereo, but for line level 
balanced lines both on inputs and outputs.

My preference for having both balance line TRS outputs and XLRs is 
that my active monitors use XLRs, while my line level inputs in the 
studio are TRS.

You are correct that having two headphone outputs is redundant, but 
after all I'm the guy who buys everything in multiples of two :)

And a pitch follower would be great.  It's high on my wish list, but 
very low on my list of things I'd try to design myself (along with 
frequency shifters.  C'mon Tony!)
