You'll notice I used the word 'most,' as in 'most analog modules you'd 
want from a synth' as there will always be more.  And I didn't see paul 
say anywhere that he was going to make a virtual analog synth; the 
synergy doesn't quite count.  The synergy, the prophet VS/wavestation, 
etc are all patently digital synthesizers.  What gave you the idea that 
paul was going to be doing VA stuff?
