This is interesting and makes things much clearer though a bit 
complicated. So it is likely that I could at least try to emulate 
the small upper solo keyboard of the GX1 with 3 X 485 and 1 X 475. 
What is not clear to me is: are only pulse and saw filtered? Does 
the main filter get the audio signal only from the BP one? What 
happens to the other waveforms (if they are present)tri and sine, do 
they pass through unfiltered? Why whenever i listen to GX1 
recordings I get the impression that the solo keyboard is 
timbrically a lot different from the two main polyphonic keyboards?
Can you (crow)draw a simple patch (just the connections of course, 
not the settings) we could use on our MOTM modular to configure an 
audio path like the GX1 solo keyboard? I think the solo in 
ELP's "Watching over you" with that "mouth harp like" sound has been 
performed on the GX1 monophonic solo keyboard.
Last obvious thoughts: we are lucky someone did reverse engineer 
these beautiful filters and someone else is letting them get 
available for our small (not too small actually) community.
