a) I am thinking *not* to spend the time to make a
super-duper 5U version. Rather, the 5U will be the same HW as the Euro, with 2
additional switches:
1 - interpolation on/off (this disables the
morphing, so it only outputs the individual wavetables and not the blended
ones)
2 - Quadrature waveforms on/off. Normally, there
are 2 outputs: XY and Z. The output the result of the X+Y morph and the Z morph
respectively. In quadrature mode, we re-assign the outputs so that the Z is a
phase shifted copy of the XY AND then abount of the phase shift is CV'd. So, you
can output any 'quadrature' (not just 90 degrees) from 0 to 360 degrees out of
phase.
b) these 2 options are jumper pins on the Euro
card, but would be from panel switches on the 5U.
Other than that, the wavetable set and the feature
set would be the same.
b) shipping would be in late Feb/early
March.
c) a super-duper version would cost $100 more, not
be ready until summer 2010.
