Yep, I made the same observation when I fired my 300 up before I finished
reading all the "use of the MPTM-300 VCO" section of the manual.  After
all, I was still reading and calibrating.

I caught a deep "sigh...." from Paul since he made a point to write about
this pitch shift on page 30  of the manual (in that "Use of the MOTM-300
VCO section I had yet to read).  I think should be some great tuning tips
in the archives as it was a hot topic when the 300 first came out.

Ooh, that would be cool.  I have drooled over that Mooger Fooger phaser and
have been just waiting and hoping that the MOTM phaser would be
soon-to-the-world.
