ABSOLUTELY WRONG.  BUT, we also need to be sure of what mud we are slinging

implementations ) we should try to be careful. i don`t advocate piracy but i

You are correct.  People like to get up in arms over almost anything anymore. 
 D**pfers A-144 Morphing Controller is similar to the shepard generator, of 
which D**pfer already has implimented on one of their midi modules.  It is 
even more similar to the Polyfusion's VC-Quadrature Oscillator, which 
generates 4 sinewaves 90 degrees out of phase with each other, controled from 
one CV.  That module has been around about 20 years before JH's idea on the 
Synthfool website.  So enough with the D**pfer bashing.
